“Moldovan” language

The references to the Moldovan language on the website of the EU Commission were changed, EU Commissioner for Multilingualism Leonard Orban told in a conference, on Friday:

On the European Commission’s web page the syntagm ‘Moldovan language’ is written, while in fact the text is in the Romanian language. It is a problem, when the site reads the Moldovan language and in fact this is the Romanian language. It cannot be accepted that a document said to be written in another language be written in the Romanian language.

The European Commissioner said that from now on the European Commission would monitor very strictly everything posted on its web page.

Orban said that this is a problem of ‘defending the Romanian language.’
