She defeated 6-2, 6-4 the Latvian player Jelena Ostapenko. Thus the Romanian player has made up for the defeat sustained in June at the Roland Garros final in front of the Latvian player. In the Beijing tournament final Simona Halep will take on the winner of the match pitting Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic against Caroline Garcia of France. Halep is the first Romanian player to become the world\u2019s no. 1 player, while being the WTA 25th world leader. In the history of Romanian tennis, in the singles competition, Simona Halep is the 2nd world leader after Ilie Nastase, who obtained the top position in the ATP classification in 1973.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong>NATO<\/strong> &#8212; The deployment of Russian troops in the Black Sea is not targeting only this region but also the east of Europe, the Mediterranean and the Middle East, the Romanian foreign minister Teodor Mele\u015fcau said Saturday at the 63rd annual meeting of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly hosted by Bucharest. Minister Melescanu pointed out that after Moscow illegally annexed Crimea in 2014, an accumulation of Russian troops and weaponry occurred, which changed the balance of forces on the area. The NATO Parliamentary Assembly meeting is being attended by more than 50 delegations from NATO\u2019s member or associate states. On Monday, in the opening of the plenary session, the Romanian President as well as the NATO Secretary General will address the participants.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Migrants<\/strong> &#8212; 50 people, among whom 19 children and 10 women, risking drowning were saved by the Romanian border police who were on a mission in the Aegean Sea. The migrants were on an overcrowded inflatable boat in full danger of sinking. The migrants were subsequently landed in the port of Chios and delivered to the Greek authorities. Since the beginning of the year the Romanian police have rescued over 1,200 people on board small boats in danger of sinking in the territorial waters of Greece, shows a communiqu\u00e9 of the Border Police. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chisinau<\/strong> &#8212; The Republic of Moldova will not receive the installment, scheduled for this year, of the 100 million euros worth of aid granted by the EU, the PM Pavel Filip announced. He nevertheless expressed his hope that the money would come in mid 2018 at the latest. Pavel Filip admitted that the measure adopted by Brussels was caused by Chisinau\u2019s decision to change the election system for the next parliamentary elections.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weather report<\/strong> &#8211; The south and southeast of Romania are under a code orange alert for bad weather until Sunday afternoon.

The highs of the day range from 8 to 17 degrees C with a 9-degree reading in Bucharest at noon. (translation by L.
