EASTER Orthodox and Greek-Catholic believers, including from Romania – a
country with an Orthodox majority – have entered the Bright Week, when they
greet each other with the traditional formula, ‘Christ is risen’ ‘He is risen,
indeed’. The formula is aimed at publicly expressing the Christian belief in
Christ’s resurrection. On Monday Romanians also celebrated St. George, a
Christian martyr who is also the patron saint of several cities across the
country as well as of Romania’s Ground Forces.








MESSAGE Romanian president Klaus Iohannis on Monday conveyed a message on
the occasion of the Veterans Day. ‘Romania’s soldiers did their duty in the
Independence war and in the two world wars. Our troops continue to serve in
various operation theatres in Afghanistan, Iraq and the Western Balkans’, the
Romanian president also added. The country’s Defence Minister, Gabriel Les, has
also conveyed a message in which he says that ‘it’s our duty to respect those
who fought so that we may live in an independent and free country. We should
learn this lesson in patriotism and pass it down to the next generations. Romania
still has 700 thousand war veterans.








CONGRATS
Romania’s Social-Democratic
Prime Minister Viorica Dancila has congratulated her Spanish counterpart Pedro
Sanchez on the victory obtained by his party in the snap parliamentary
elections on Sunday. In a communiqué issued by the Executive in Bucharest,
Dancila has reiterated Romania’s readiness to carry on and diversify the
excellent bilateral dialogue, to strengthen and deepen the strategic
partnership between the two countries in key domains such as infrastructure,
energy, agriculture, domestic affairs and European policies. Dancila has voiced
hope the Romanian Diaspora in Spain will continue to represent a strong link in
the bilateral relations. Pedro Sanchez has obtained a clear win in the election
but is short of majority in Spain’s Legislature. Turnout stayed at 75%, the
highest in recent years.
