The relations between Romania and France are not ordinary bilateral relations, we have a long history and a very stable future," President Nicusor Dan told a press conference on Tuesday.
He added that the discussions within his working visit were "extremely cordial."
Furthermore, he stated that, within the meeting, he addressed the perspective of investments in the defence industry through the SAFE programme.
The head of state said that in terms of the Romanian defence industry, there have been several stages: one in which "we bought without asking for anything" and a second, "when we bought and set the condition that things had to happen in Romania and once the order was completed, the investment was no longer relevant."
Romania currently "wants the investments which SAFE brings to our defence programme to become permanent investments," the head of state pointed out.
President Nicusor Dan added that he invited President Macron to Romania and the French president confirmed that the visit will take place next year.
