Diaspora commemorated the poet Grigore Vieru

The great poet of the nation, Grigore Vieru, remains a strong pillar of national culture. Vieru's personality will remain in our memory, thanks to his creation which has an indisputable educational value, based on several essential themes - mother, homeland, speech, war, peace, childhood, etc.

On February 14, Grigore Vieru would have turned 88 years old. On this occasion, several members of the diaspora, settled in various corners of the world, paid tribute to the late poet.

A literary evening with the participation of our compatriots settled in the Land of the Rising Sun was organized at the Embassy of the Republic of Moldova in Japan. Those present at the event recited the writer's poems, including translations into Japanese and German. The members of the diaspora found that far from their native lands, Vieru's works make you relive even more strongly the feelings towards the nation and the country.

Another event commemorating the national poet, Grigore Vieru, was organized at the Embassy of the Republic of Moldova in Belgium and Luxembourg. A recital of poems and songs was presented by the members of the group "Sezatore Bruxelles".

The theme addressed by Vieru in his verses, apparently simple but very profound, was also noticed by the members of the "Miorița" association in Portugal who, in turn, paid tribute to the master. Both the children and their parents, members of the respective association, presented a literary-musical program during a soulful evening.

We note that one of the major objectives of the Diaspora Relations Bureau (BRD) is to promote reading, local writers and poets among Moldovans living abroad. In this sense, for several years in a row, BRD has offered several batches of the book "Albinuta", written by the poet Grigore Vieru, as a gift to the Educational Centers of the Diaspora and associations in the diaspora.
