On behalf of the United States of America, I wish all Romanians a joyful celebration of the anniversary of your great unification, more than 100 years ago.
Romania’s commitment to security and democracy in Europe is an inspiration for all nations. The United States is proud to work with you as you modernize your military and contribute to strengthening NATO’s eastern flank. Romania’s support for Ukraine, including welcoming refugees and providing security assistance, has bolstered the cause of freedom in the face of Russia’s aggression. Your leadership in helping Ukrainian grain reach global markets has helped feed the world.
The ties between our nations, built over decades, continue to prosper. We are pleased to expand our cooperation in energy transition and commend Romania’s commitment to increasing solar, wind and nuclear capacity and regional interconnectivity. Our growing business, educational and cultural exchanges underscore the depth of our longstanding friendship.
We are proud to partner with Romania to address global challenges and secure the prosperity and wellbeing of our peoples. Congratulations on your national day.
