Romania's contribution to the talks on achieving a fair, comprehensive and sustainable peace in Ukraine was discussed on Monday at the meeting of the Supreme Council for National Defense (CSAT), according to a press release from the Presidential Administration.
The illegal and unprovoked war launched by the Russian Federation against Ukraine was one of the topics on the agenda of the CSAT meeting, which took place on Monday at the Cotroceni Palace, under the leadership of President Nicusor Dan, analyzing the situation on the front and the stage of negotiations, from the perspective of the implications for Romania.
"As a neighboring state, as well as a NATO ally and a member of the European Union, Romania is directly interested in the security of Ukraine, which has a major impact on both regional security and the entire Europe. Our country supports the efforts of the United States of America to end this armed conflict and condemns the lack of political will on the part of Moscow towards peace and its refusal for a complete, immediate and unconditional ceasefire. Together with the other EU and NATO member states, Romania will continue to support Ukraine in the fight to defend its sovereignty. It is in the interest of our country that the war ends with a just and lasting peace, which establishes solid guarantees capable of deterring a new aggression from Russia and contributing to the security of the Euro-Atlantic area, including the Black Sea region," the Presidential Administration's press release states.
The cited source specifies that, within the CSAT meeting, Romania's contribution to the talks on achieving a fair, comprehensive and sustainable peace was also discussed, given the importance of a future peace settlement in Ukraine.
"In this regard, the CSAT members mentioned that the negotiations cannot take place without Ukraine and the EU, and a stable peace must firmly exclude any Russian attempt to re-divide Europe into spheres of influence", informs the Presidential Administration.
Also, during Monday's meeting, the members of the Council analyzed and approved the Romanian armed forces that can be made available for participation in missions and operations outside the territory of the Romanian state in 2026.
