Congratulations to Poland @POLAND25EU on concluding its mandate as Presidency of the EU CONS! Full appreciation for the dedicated efforts of our Polish 🇵🇱 partners to consolidate Europe’s security & strengthen EU’s competitiveness and convergence. Looking forward to continuing our common work for a united and resilient 🇪🇺!

Congratulation to @SecLazaro for assuming the leadership of the Philippines' diplomacy, at this crucial moment for our regions. It’s always great to have a growing circle of women ministers of foreign affairs. Looking forward to working together for the benefit of our countries 🇷🇴🇵🇭 and citizens!

It was a pleasure to bid farewell today to SR 🇷🇸Ambassador to RO 🇷🇴, Stefan Tomašević. I thanked him for his valuable contribution to strengthening the ties between our countries across many areas of shared interest. I reiterated Romania's constant support for Serbia's EU 🇪🇺 path which remains both credible and rewarding. Wishing him and his family all the best in their future endeavors!

Appalled to learn of yet another massive attack of the Russian forces against Ukrainian 🇺🇦 civilians in many UA cities including Kyiv & Odesa. Once more RU proves utter disregard for international law and contempt for human life. Romania 🇷🇴 strongly condemns this barbaric attack and conveys its solidarity to the Ukrainian people. Our utmost appreciation for the bravery of UA soldiers, many of them of Romanian ethnicity, and for the resilience of UA citizens, including the Romanian community in UA. We remain in close coordination with our UA partners while thoroughly monitoring conditions for the safe reopening of RO Consulate General in Odesa as soon as the situation on the ground allows it.

Congratulations and every success to my colleague in the Romanian Parliament’s Chamber of Deputies, Hajdu Gábor, President of the Foreign Affairs Committee, for his election as Vice-President of the @OSCEPA. OSCE has an important role to play in the current international context and parliamentary diplomacy brings important added value to our work.
