The Royal Family, 70th anniversary of the end of the Second World War

In the name of His Majesty King Michael I, Wednesday, the 29th of April 2015, Their Royal Highnesses Crown Princess Margareta and Prince Radu hosted at Elisabeta Palace in Bucharest an official dinner on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the end of the Second World War.

The event was attended by 70 Veterans of War and members of their families, the minister of National Defence, Mr Mircea Dușa, the Chief of the Armed Forces General Staff, Lieutenant General Nicolae Ciucă and members of the Diplomatic Corps accredited to Bucharest.

His Majesty King Michael attended the ceremonies celebrating the 50th, the 60th and the 65th anniversary of the end of the Second World War. His Majesty was present in London in 1995, in Bratislava, Brno, Prague and Moscow in 2005, and in Moscow in 2010.

This year, the Royal Family honored, in Bucharest, together with the Romanian Armed Forces, the memory of the Romanian soldiers wounded and killed during the Second World War.

    His Majesty King Michael of Romania was in 1995 – and is now, in 2015 – the only surviving Head of State who was on the battle scene during the Second World War and what He did on the 23rd of August 1944 (turning weapons against the fascists) was important and beneficial not just for His country, but for the other countries engaged in the WWII as well. It is common knowledge that this has lead to the war ending more than half a year earlier, thus sparing the lives of hundreds of thousand
    of people. It stands to reason that He was the guest of all these ceremonies.

    We Romanians are proud to have such a personality like H.M. King Michael among us, and are grateful to the Royal Family for organizing this event for the veterans.
