Romania's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MAE) informs having facilitated, together with other Romanian governmental institutions, the return to the country on Sunday of 620 Romanian nationals from the Netherlands, France and Spain.
The repatriation was secured by four flights operated by the Tarom national airline.
"Among the repatriated Romanian citizens are persons in transit from the United States of America or Canada, doctors, students, family members of some Romanian citizens, as well as persons who were unable to extend their stay in the respective states for various reasons.

MAE uses this opportunity to emphasise the importance of carefully checking, prior to any travel, the information posted on its website on travel advice and alerts, as well as information of interest published on the websites of diplomatic missions and consular offices of Romania abroad.
