Pleased to discuss with Secretary of the @USArmy Dan Driscoll security topics of shared interest and ways to enhance our enduring RO-US Strategic Partnership, with a special focus on defence and economy. We agreed that there is a need to step up our cooperation in order to take advantage of all defence industry cooperation opportunities, including security  innovation, research and start-ups. Romania continues to be the most reliable US partner and Ally at the Black Sea, where challenges and risks tend to increase, affecting the Euro-Atlantic security. Romania is ready to invest more and to do more for its own security and for Allied security. We are convinced that the security of Ukraine is closely linked to our own security and also to the security of the Republic of Moldova and to the region as a whole. We both share the assessment that we should diversify efforts to adjust to the existing security environment. There is still a huge potential within the framework of our bilateral cooperation and we are ready to increase all efforts with the aim at achieving more concrete results in areas of strategic interest, to the mutual benefit of our countries and citizens. @USAmbRO
