P.M. orders barbed wire at border with Romania to be removed

Prime Minister Vlad Filat asked the State Office to prepare a package of documents to initiate the process of taking down the barbed wire on the Romanian border. Mr. Filat said that Moldova cannot talk about European integration while having barbed wire on the river Prut, which acts as a natural border between Romania and Moldova.

The State Office's report will include an assessment of the impact of taking down the barbed wire fence on special areas protested by the state, like natural reservations.
