CBRN-E Specialists with Romania's Special Protection and Guard Service (SPP) have joined US experts in drills on weapons of mass destruction (WMD) attacks.
According to a SPP news statement released on Wednesday, the SPP chemical, biological, radioactive, nuclear or explosive hazard specialists took part, for five days, alongside their counterparts from the other agencies of the National Defence, Public Order and Security System in a series of training exercises provided by American experts.
Bucharest hosts the only FBI WMD office in Europe. There are two other similar offices abroad, one each in Dubai and Singapore. An FBI official is permanently deployed in Romania to provide, in crisis situations, advice, technical expertise as well as logistic and human support to Romanian specialists.
