"Romania is the NATO Ally with the longest border with Ukraine and we clearly understand the need to strengthen our national defence and to reinforce NATO's position on the Eastern flank in a unified and coherent, credible and robust way, including on the Black Sea. This effort is transatlantic in scope and focus. We must ensure that the decisions taken last year in Madrid are fully implemented. And I include here also decisions on the strategic importance of the Black Sea for Euro-Atlantic security. We will continue to support Ukraine for as long as necessary. Ukraine's victory in this war is our primary objective. At the same time, Romania's support for Ukraine's accession to the Alliance, as foreseen at the 2008 NATO Summit in Bucharest, is unwavering. At the same time, we must strengthen our support for NATO's vulnerable partners, especially the Republic of Moldova, in order to strengthen its defence and resilience capabilities", said the President of Romania.

The Bucharest 9 (B9) Summit, co-chaired by the Presidents of Romania, Slovakia and Poland, is taking place in Bratislava.

The agenda for the discussions is to assess progress in implementing Allied decisions taken at the NATO Madrid Summit, including defence investment and spending commitments, and to support Ukraine in its Euro-Atlantic aspirations.

Moldova could become a reliable fruit supplier to European markets, expert

The Republic of Moldova has the potential to transform into the "orchard of Europe," despite the increasing challenges facing its horticultural sector. The agricultural year 2025 has been marked by significant climate change, pressure on export markets, and rising costs. However, Moldovan producers have shown resilience and adaptability. They continue to invest in modern technologies, efficient agricultural practices, and international quality standards, according to Iurie Fală, the executive director of the "Moldova Fruct" Association.
