Former President (2001-2009) and current Party of Communists (PC) head Vladimir Voronin told the press today that Romanian President Traian Basescu "should mind his own business at home, in Romania" instead of visiting Moldova.
Mr. Basescu has planned a two-day visit to Moldova, during which he will meet with local officials and visit the cemetery of Romanian soldiers who fought the Soviets in 1941, located in the village of Tiganca.
Communist-run Moldova between 2001 and 2009 had a very tense relationship with Bucharest, which peaked in April 2009, when Mr. Voronin accused the neighboring country of attempting to stage a coup. The conflict is mostly centered on the Communists' insistence that Moldovans are not Romanians and objections to Mr. Basescu calling Moldova a "second Romanian state."
