The Eternity Memorial Complex is a memorial located in Chisinau dedicated to soviet soldiers who died in the battles of the Second World War. The Military Museum has displays of Moldova's past military campaigns and, in a park outside, a small open-air military exhibition displaying Soviet- made tanks, fighter planes and other military toys inherited by Moldova's armed forces. Next, you will have an excursion at Chisinau Railway Station built on 15 August 1871. The 2nd World War destroyed the station building, as it was blown up by the Red army in 1941. It was partially restored in 1944, but air attacks destroyed it once again. In 1948, the station was rebuilt. In 1990 at the Station’s Square there was unveiled a temporary stone commemorating the Victims of Stalinist Repression and mass deportations in Soviet Moldova in 1940-1951 - the Train of Pain.

(Armenia), which included Sophie Trémolet, Lilit Melikyan, Kevin Tayler, Eduard Mesropyan and Aida Iskoyan, for the analytical work and whom are also the authors of this report. Tatiana Efimova at the OECD provided essential oversight and inputs. The authors gratefully acknowledge the contribution of participants of the EUWI National Policy Dialogue to the project and to this report, and would like to thank the State Committee of Water Systems of Armenia for a very productive co-operation. The authors thank Xavier Leflaive (OECD) for his valuable comments that helped improve both the content and structure of the report, and express their appreciation to Matthew Griffiths (OECD) for professional contributions to the project at its final stage. In addition, the authors thank Shukhrat Ziyaviddinov, Maria Dubois and Lupita Johanson (all OECD), for their valuable contribution to preparing publication of the report. The views presented in this report are those of the authors and can in no way be taken to reflect the official opinion of the Government of Armenia, the European Union, or the OECD and its member countries.
