Whakakī i te rerenga e whai ake nei: I noho a Robot ki muri i tana rohe whakatamarikitanga i muri i te haerenga a Romania
1940 te wehenga o Bessarabia ki te Soviet Union. Ko tenei, e kii ana a Iurie Colesnic, "he kowhiringa mohio", a he tika na te whakapono a Robot ko te waiata avant-garde i tino manakohia e te tari Soviet (i waiho ai ia hei "mate hinengaro tino marama o te poroporoaki Soviet"). Ka tuhituhi ano a Colesnic: "E whakaaro ana ahau he tino nui, he uaua hoki te whakatika i tana pouri i muri i te kotahi tau i noho ai ia i raro i te kawanatanga o te Communist". He tautohe rite na Eugen Lungu, e kii ana ko Robot "i whakaata i te [...] te piri ki te koa o nga "kolkhozniks"" a, penei i etahi atu kaituhi mai i te Moldavian SSR hou, i hangaia kia rite ki te Socialist Realism. I roto i te nuinga o nga korero, ka kii a Lungu, i whai a Robot i te mana o te Soviet mo te "reo Moldovan", he rereke mai i te Romanian me te whakahaerehia e nga whare wananga matauranga i Balta.
