For that matter, the new prime minister in Chisinau Vlad Filat, said, at the beginning of this week, that the Republic of Moldova has a very ambitious and substantial plan regarding the relations with Romania and which has to be fulfilled in a short period of time, signed will be the opening of the Romanian consulates at Cahul and Balti, and the opening of a Moldovan Consulate in Iasi.
