“Romania’s membership in NATO represents a security guarantee for our country. In the 20 years of membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Romania has become an important pillar and consolidated its position within the alliance by respecting its security commitments in the Black Sea area”, says Marcel Ciolacu on Friday, on the page from Facebook.
The Prime Minister says that Romania will continue to be an influential and constructive actor within NATO in order to strengthen and develop the alliance in such a way that collective security guarantees provide Romanians with the stability and security they need for Romania’s development.
The Romanian state received the invitation to open accession negotiations to the Alliance in 2002, at the Prague Summit, together with Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Slovakia and Slovenia.
Romania became a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, with the submission of the instrument of accession to the organization at the State Department of the United States of America in Washington, DC, on March 29, 2004. The ceremony of raising the Romanian flag at the NATO headquarters took place on April 2, 2004.
Every year, on the first Sunday of April, “NATO Day in Romania” is celebrated.
