The Romanian Orthodox Church urges prayer, calm, and discernment amidst the ongoing parliamentary and presidential elections.
We firmly reject any forms of behaviour that incite division or hatred and emphasize the need for dialogue throughout society to foster peace, mutual respect, and responsibility.
This period, coinciding with the Nativity Fast, calls us to exhibit healthy conduct rooted in openness, understanding, solidarity, and communion.
As an expression of freedom of conscience, each person’s vote faithfully reflects their shared values and beliefs. Voting should never serve as a source of social unrest but rather as the natural exercise of a democratic right.
