“Eduard Ababei will remain in the memory of his colleagues owing to his enviable calmness when debating draft decisions and judgments, his gestures showing he was a calm man, his replies showing a sharp sense of humor, and also owing to his capacity to make friends during a short period of time, in a world that is progressively hurried and more reserved and lacks receptivity” says the CC’s message.
