Nicu\u015for Dan<\/strong>:\u201d NATO\u2019s eastern flank and Black Sea region is in the first line of the Russian threats. I want to express on this occasion the profound gratitude of Romania and its citizens for the efforts made by the United States and its allies to consolidate the defence and deterrence measures in our country.
