The Romanian Frigate "Regina Maria" (F-222), part of the package of forces put at NATO's disposal by the Romanian Military Navy, docked in the Georgian Poti Port on Wednesday, within the missions planned in the Black Sea, the Naval Forces General Staff (SMFN) informs.
"The drills executed at sea took place without a direct contact between the crew members of the ships, the coordination of the sailors' actions being done through radio and video communications aboard the ships, and during the stopover in the Georgian port the official visits, media events, ceremonies and tours of the ships by the civil population have been canceled, as health safety measures for both the crews, local officials and the public in Georgia," the SMFN mentions.
