The legislative proposal was submitted to parliament on April 14 and received a negative opinion from the government, as well as negative reviews from the Chamber of Deputies’ Legal Committee and Human Rights Committee, according to news.ro.
On Wednesday, the legislative initiative was tacitly adopted by the Chamber of Deputies after the 45-day deadline had expired, in accordance with Article 75, paragraph (2) of Section III of the Constitution, and will be sent to the Senate, which is the decision-making body, as the initiating chamber, given the absence of debate during the plenary session.
According to the initiative, the Romanian Parliament decides on the unification of Romania with the Republic of Moldova.
The draft also states that the Romanian Parliament reaffirms its commitment to the provisions of the Final Act of the CSCE Conference in Helsinki, which allows for the possibility of changing borders through peaceful diplomatic means and empowers the country’s government to urgently begin negotiations with the authorities in Chisinau for unification with the Republic of Moldova.
Following the adoption of this law and its publication in the Official Gazette, the relevant international bodies—the government of the Republic of Moldova, the United States, NATO, the United Nations, and the European Union—will be notified of the need to comply with the provisions of the law, the legislative proposal further states.
