Dr. Daniel Ciugureanu (1885-1950), personalitate marcantă a neamului românesc
Daniel Ciugureanu (1885-1950), a distinguished personality of the Romanian people

Summary/Abstract: Dr. Daniel Ciugureanu was an outstanding personality of the Romanian people. He was part of the generation of the Union and along with the great representatives of that era contributed to the fulfillment of the aspirations of all Romanians about the unity of national territories. The unification of Bessarabia with Romania was his dream, the political ideal for which he fervently fought his whole life, arguing that there is no province more Romanian than Bessarabia, that this is a living part of a single body in which blood pulsates through the beating of the same heart. The role of Dr. Daniel Ciugureanu in joining Bessarabia can be comparable to that of Iuliu Maniu in the union of Transylvania with Romania. Two titans of the Romanian nation, who dedicated their lives to the ideal of national unity, found the tragic end – one died in a terrible communist prison in Sighet, the other – on the way to the same prison, in Turda. The name of Dr. Daniel Ciugureanu can rightfully be put alongside the great names in the Bessarabian political life of the early 20th century, such as Ioan Pelivan, Ştefan Ciobanu, Constantin Stere, Pantelimon Halippa, Professor Constantin Tomescu, General Ioan Riscanu.
