Romanian President Welcomes Prince Akishino Of Japan And Princess Kiko

The two high officials are on a four-day visit to Romania, part of a European tour, at the invitation of the Romanian head of state.

 

Romanian culture minister Theodor Paleologu, head of the diplomatic mission organized in Bucharest, also attended the welcoming ceremony.

 

Prince Akishino and his wide will visit Wednesday the Cotroceni Museum and will meet with Senate chairman Mircea Geoana and Chamber of Deputies speaker Roberta Anastase.

 

Japan’s ambassador to Bucharest, Yoshinobu Higashi, told a press conference last week that the visit of Prince Akishino and Princess Kiko to Romania was extended from three to four days at their request, as they are very anxious to learn more things about Romania.
