Border Police Day in Ungheni, the city that guards the Prut from Cuhnești to Leușeni

On 10 June the Border Police celebrated its professional day, marked in Ungheni too, at the Palace of Culture, where the district administration presented the force with a Diploma of Honour. Beyond the ceremony, the city has a particular reason to celebrate: it hosts the West Regional Directorate, the structure overseeing eight sectors of the Moldovan-Romanian border — including Sculeni, one of the busiest road gateways to the European Union. Ungheni is also home to the country's only institution that trains border police officers.
