The cabinet decided to earmark one million lei for promoting the Nobel Peace Prize nominee, Ion Lazarenco.

 

“Personally, I am proud of this man, even though he has gone to Ireland for more than 20 years, has always swam as a citizen of Moldova and has wrapped himself with the flag of the country after his victories. This is a lesson of patriotism for us. Ion Lazarenco has shown that if there is will and courage, then results are got," Filip said.

 

Lazarenco thanked the premier for support and decision to put forward for the Novel Peace Prize. “I believed in my dream, in my message, and I thank the Prime Minister for this heroic decision to submit my candidacy. I believe in us as a country, if we unite our forces, we will make the change. Together we can become ambassadors of peace and good," Lazarenco said.

 

The premier noted that now is the time to prove that Moldovans can be united. "I strongly believe that Republic of Moldova is like Ion Lazarenco - ambitious and strong, so if we organize and mobilize ourselves to promote the athlete, we will have what we are proud of" Filip said.

 

Lazarenco is the first in the world to cross the seven straits from the first attempt. At the same time, he swam along the Dniester River to attract community attention to the Transnistrian conflict. His first project was The Dniester Peace Swim, a distance of 240 km, within 8 days, for charity. Another project with a message of peace and friendship is Dniester unites Moldova.

 

Nobel Prize winners will be announced in December this year.
