President Klaus Iohannis stated on Wednesday that politicians are bound to preserve Romania's Euro-Atlantic strategic options unaltered. "A decade ago, when Romania was in one of the most dramatic moments of its existence, Ion I. C. Bratianu proved his earnestness and commitment for the objectives took on when entering the Great War. Alongside the king, Ion I. C. Bratianu and his Gov't, in hideaway, just as Romania's Parliament, did not abandon the pro-Western direction that our country took on through the vision of its political class and the sacrifice of the Romanian soldiers. This example of responsibility is more up-to-date than ever, and the politicians of today are bound to keep Romania's Euro-Atlantic strategic options unaltered," Iohannis stated at the debate called "Romanian cities 100 years after the Great Union. A smart future for Ploiesti," which was organised at the Petrol-Gas University.
He also claimed that a nation's progress occurs when the citizen lies at the core of the political decision-makers' concerns. "I believe that at 100 years since the Greater Union, we don't need slogans and ceremonies with no substance, but we need, first of all, facts," the head of state underscored.
