The President of the Republic went to Romania to salute the work of the 500 French soldiers who are deployed there. He will then go to Moldova before, perhaps, ending his trip in Ukraine at the end of the week.
Tuesday, June 14, Emmanuel Macron went to Romania, to meet some 500 French soldiers from NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) who are deployed there. A trip to complicated diplomatic terrain. “Emmanuel Macron began his trip to Romania with a meeting with French soldiers on this NATO base. 500 of them take part in this system. ‘You can be proud of what you are doing,’ the Head of State. It is a strategic base because in the context of the Ukrainian conflict, we are just on the shores of the Black Sea. This commitment testifies, according to the President, to the credibility of France within NATO and with European allies”explains Guillaume Daret, special correspondent in Constanta (Romania) for France Télévisons and franceinfo.
After this visit to Romania, Emmanuel Macron will head to Moldova. “This is a country that still feels a little more threatened by Russia. It will also be an opportunity to explain its positions and words, while it has sometimes been criticized for continuing to maintain dialogue with Vladimir Putin. We still do not know if he will go to Ukraine at the end of the week, while the hypothesis of a meeting with other European leaders is still circulating. The Elysée still refuses to confirm “he concludes.
