Political Quotes

“Congratulations to former Prime Minister Maia Sandu on being elected the new President of Moldova on Sunday. Correspondent Corneliu Rusnac has reported, ``Pro-Western candidate wins Moldovan Presidential election,'' and that ``Maia Sandu, a former World Bank economist who favors closer ties with the European Union, has won Moldova's Presidential runoff vote, decisively defeating the staunchly pro-Russian incumbent, according to preliminary results released Monday.'' It should always be remembered that Moldova was the first victim of Putin-maintained aggression by the occupation of Transnistria in 1991, which was a tragic prelude to the illegal Putin occupation of territories in the Republic of Georgia in 2008 and eastern Ukraine in 2014, where over 13,000 citizens have died. All three illegal Putin occupations persist today. Americans are so grateful for this renewed opportunity to work with Moldova and congratulate the Moldovan people on their new President. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September 11th in the global war on terrorism. God bless the people of Moldova. ____________________”
