28:55 Conclusion. What unites them?
How realistic is the unification of Moldova and Romania today? What do history, the law, and the position of society say about this? What arguments do supporters of unification make, and what fears do those who advocate for maintaining Moldova's independent statehood fear?
This and much more is covered in the new episode of ShahDebat.
The opinions of the participants reflect their personal positions and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the editorial board of the Shah-Debat project.
Our goal is to develop a culture of public debate, critical thinking, and open discussion of current issues in Moldova. The project maintains neutrality and does not take sides in any discussion.
We thank the State University of Moldova, Faculty of Journalism and Communication Sciences, and the editorial board of Unda Liberă for providing the filming location.
