The Romanian Senate on Wednesday unanimously adopted a bill on declaring October 12 Armenian Language, Alphabet, and Culture Day in Romania; Armenia’s Ambassador to Romania, Sergey Minasyan, informed about this.

“It was submitted on the initiative of [Armenian] MPs Varujan Pambuccian and Varujan Vosganian of the Romanian Parliament,” the ambassador noted in a Facebook post. “According to the internal procedures of Romania, the bill must also be approved by the Lower House of Parliament [the Chamber of Deputies] and signed by the president of the country.”
