“I, as president, found out for the first time. What’s next? Now it will be verified, but we see that he has violated, all the circumstances will be verified, citizenship will be annulled and this person will be extradited to the Romanian security forces. And if he took advantage of the protection of the old oligarchic regime in Chisinau and obtained citizenship illegally, this citizenship will be revoked and we will extradite him back to Romania and do whatever you want with him! ”Said Igor Dodon, who is on the campaign trail, running for a new term as president.
