Assessing Romania’s Strategic Partnerships – Recent Endeavours in Romanian-Moldavian Relations

Not surprisingly, in the light of recent geopolitical events in the region, researching the twists and turns of the relations between Romania and its eastern neighbour, the Republic of Moldova, as well as the approach of the European Union to the Eastern Partnership presents a variety of challenges, but yields interesting findings.1 The latter span from an abundance of political dialogues to the ever complicated project-type endeavours attempted by the two countries, all the way across more or less clumsy or at best idealistic positions taken in the light of the apparently unsurmountable history that has shaped what is without a doubt a special kind of relationship. Nevertheless, given the multiple angles that become relevant in assessing the nature of the rather ambiguous Strategic Partnership the two countries have been implementing, such a study is endowed with significance at this time so as to emphasise the extent to which one can genuinely speak of a paramount document with tentacles covering vast areas from the political to the economic and beyond, or whether the document reflects an overstated expression devoid of instruments, mechanisms and indicators that would render it comprehensible and, of course, viable. It is under such premises that we may state the general objective of this study as attempting to collect proof that the Strategic Partnership is indeed operational through the critical lens of the partly failed dialogue between the two brotherly neighbours on various notable occasions in very recent history. Diplomatic relations and political discourses have indeed been rather sinuous in this duet, often reflecting the change in approach (and people) in the two administrations, although it remains to be seen
