Foreign Affairs Minister Teodor Melescanu stated on Thursday that he is in favor of a high level meeting between the European Union (EU) and the US, in which to be discussed the effect of the US foreign policies' changes over Europe.
"I am in favor of a high level meeting between the EU and US, in which to discuss about what will be the effect of changes of US foreign policies over Europe, and particularly over Romania. For Romania the most important thing is the status of Romania-US relationship in the future. Let's not forget NATO's presence through the US in Romania," the Minister said.
He mentioned that Romania, part of the EU, wants to strengthen the relation with the US.
"Romania also is part of the EU, but, at the same time, it's a distinct country and it's not by chance the fact that we want to strengthen our US-Romania relation and we are doing it. [...] Romania committed to spend 2 percent of the GDP for the endowment of the Army. And this reveals that we want to handle our responsibilities," Melescanu stated within the Good Governance Summit organized by Strategikon, that is taking place at the National Bank of Romania (BNR).
