Româna devine limbă oficială în Republica Moldova
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: On March 2 and 16, 2023, the Parliament of the Republic of Moldova adopted the project regarding the replacement of the name “Moldovan language” with “Romanian language” as the official language. The im portance of this decision was commented on by politicians, analysts, writers, linguists, and state institutions. At the same time, however, it provoked criticism and protests from the parliamentary opposition and reverberated in the official circles of the Russian Federation. The materials published in Izvestia reveal all commentators’ concern in relation to the great danger in adopting the name of Romanian language. They fear that Moldova, as an independent state, will lose its sovereignty and will be united with Romania. The publication is an example of how the language problem has been politicised.
