„These works should have been made in the last 30 years; yet, now, it is our duty to intervene as quickly as possible. We must bring this infrastructure to these villages, but we should be aware of the fact that we might have difficulties at their connection. Yet, it is our duty to do our utmost, in order to provide our people from these villages with electric energy and natural gas,’’ PM Dorin Recean said.
