"The Russian reaction to President Basescu's statements is overblown if we take into consideration the historical facts, the Ribbentrop-Molotov agreement and the 1939 USSR ultimatum which addressed Romania to cede Bessarabia," Victor Lupu, deputy chief editor with the English language daily Nine o’clock , told SETimes.
Reakcija Rusije na izjavu predsednika Baseskua je prenaduvana ako uzmemo u obzir istorijske činjenice, sporazum Ribentrop–Molotov i ultimatum SSSR iz 1939. u kome se od Rumunije traži da preda Besarabiju,“ kaže za SETimes Viktor Lupu, zamenik glavnog i odgovornog urednika dnevnika na engleskom Devet sati.
