The Second Session of the Great National Assembly of all Romanians of Bessarabia, Transnistria and Northern Bucovina, having convened at a crucial moment of the history (of Moldavia), finds the following:
.....
A direct outcome of the 1940 act of aggression is the presence on the Moldavian national territory of the occupying army, of the communist party of the Soviet Union, and of its secret police, the KGB, active even today to ensure the soviet imperialistic domination.
.....
The empire's ruling regime is using a new treaty of union to try to maintain the captive nations as mere component parts of a state that is prevalently monolithic and totalitarian.

Faced with the immediate danger of a total annihilation of the very national existence of the Romanians in the occupied territories, reasserting the people's perennial desire for freedom and independence, .... and in accordance with the universally recognized right of the nations to self determination,

THE GREAT NATIONAL ASSEMBLY proclaims:

- The national independence of the Romanians in the occupied territories and the granting to the entire Romanian nation the right to defend and guarantee that independence using all available means;

- Signing any treaty of union with an empire would confer a semblance of legality to the act of occupation of June 28, 1940.... There is absolutely no legal evidence that could bear witness to our desire to become part of the U.S.S.R. Having been engulfed into the U.S.S.R. against our free will, (we) the people of the Romanian occupied territories have no obligation to the soviet state;

The future of the Romanian occupied territories should be decided only by the Romanian nation in its entirety, that nation being the unique entity to which international law applies, and that nation being the bearer of the unalterable and inalienable right to decide itsown fate without external intervention;
.....
The participation of the Moldavian Republic's deputies in the Assembly of Deputies and Supreme Soviet of the U.S.S.R. has in the present circumstances no juridical validity and no moral justification;
.....
Faithful to its striving for national unity and independence, our nation once more reasserts its desire for peaceful coexistence and cooperation with the citizens of other national extraction, granting them all rights for the free development of their ethnic, cultural and religious life (.....).
.....

Our nation's progress toward democracy and independence cannot be conceived without the guarantee of all universally acknowledged basic human rights;

-- No state and no party of political body has a right to instigate the citizens of Moldavia to perpetrate acts of treason against their nation. Hence the continued activity on Romanian territory of the structures of the occupying power such as the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the KGB, the soviet secret police, a.s.o., is in disagreement with the best interests and aspirations of (the Moldavian) people. The Great National Assembly demands that those foreign structure be legally banned and their property be nationalized.
.....

The right of nations to decide their own fate is unlimited and indivisible. The Moldavian people has claimed that right by embarking upon a national liberation movement that cannot be stopped either by unfavorable political circumstances or by the arbitrary dictates of the leaders of the U.S.S.R. The attempts of those leaders at using the army to suppress the national liberation movement is a crime against our nation....
