Moldovan ex-president Voronin back to his believes, slams Romania
Former Moldovan President and Communist head Voronin slams Romania, said it only joined the European Union because it allowed the U.S. to built bases
Former Moldovan President (2001-2009) and Party of Communists head Vladimir Voronin said during a televised interview with a private station that the only reason Romania joined the European Union was because it allowed the United States to build two military bases on its territory.
Mr. Voronin said that Bucharest was not ready to join the E.U. in 2007.
When the Communists were in power, ties with Romania were very tense and culminated in Mr. Voronin accusing Bucharest of a coup in April 2009. Recently, during Romanian President Traian Basescu's visit to Chisinau, Communist M.P. Mark Tkaciuk, who is a close ally of Mr. Voronin's, said Mr. Basescu "had returned to the scene of the crime."
