President of the Senate Calin Popescu-Tariceanu thanked Romanian sailors for their professionalism on the occasion of the Romanian Navy Day. "Today, Romanians celebrate the Assumption of Mary, one of the greatest Christian feasts. For Romanians, 15 August has a double meaning, being also the Romanian Navy Day. In this great day, I thank our sailors for their devotion and professionalism, for the commitment and courage they proved in defending independence and sovereignty. The Navy Day offers us the occasion to show our respect towards an elite body of the Romanian Army, a true ambassador of our country. Many happy returns to Romanian sailors!," Calin Popescu-Tariceanu wrote on his Facebook page.
Over 12,000 persons were present on Tuesday at the esplanade of the Fleet Command and the Tomis Harbor in Constanta, in order to attend the exercise performed by the Romanian Naval Forces, with the participation of 30 ships and boats, 12 aircraft and 3,000 servicemen, on the occasion of celebrating the Romanian Navy Day. The celebration started with the greeting of President Klaus Iohannis by the honor guard with 21-gun salute, simultaneous with the national anthem of Romania being played and the tricolour flag being hoist to the mast.
