I had an important meeting today with Prime Minister @RumenRadevPM and @SecGenNATO Mark Rutte to strengthen our defences in the Black Sea. With our @NATO Allies, we have a commitment to defend every inch of our territory, including our waters and airspace. The situation in the Black Sea is serious. Commercial ships are being attacked and sunk. Seafarers killed, injured, and missing, very close to the shores of Romania and Bulgaria. This is unacceptable and it has to stop. Lives, global trade, and critical infrastructure are at stake. We stand together for a safe and open Black Sea, for Romania, Bulgaria, Europe, and the whole world.

On Spain’s National Day, Romania celebrates the friendship and strong partnership between our two countries. Our ties are strengthened by our close people-to-people connections and our shared commitment as EU and NATO allies. ¡Feliz Fiesta Nacional! @SpainMFA

România condamnă ferm atacul Federației Ruse pe teritoriul Ucrainei, în apropierea punctului de trecere a frontierei Palanca (Republica Moldova) - Maiaki-Udobnoe (Ucraina), în urma căruia în Republica Moldova a fost rănită o persoană, iar obiective civile au fost afectate. Astfel de acțiuni sunt inacceptabile, reprezentând amenințări directe la adresa securității Republicii Moldova, punând în pericol siguranța cetățenilor acesteia și escaladând suplimentar situația de securitate în regiune. Suntem alături de Republica Moldova și de cetățenii săi și reafirmăm angajamentul nostru pentru consolidarea securității, stabilității și rezilienței sale. România își reiterează solidaritatea deplină cu Republica Moldova și susținerea față de suveranitatea și integritatea teritorială a acesteia, reînnoindu-și apelurile adresate Federației Ruse de a înceta imediat astfel de acțiuni periculoase, extensie a agresiunii ilegale și neprovocate pe care aceasta o duce împotriva Ucrainei de peste 4 ani. @MoldovaMFA @MFA_Ukraine

It was a pleasure to meet Secretary-General @antonioguterres at the start of my visit to the @UN. I conveyed Romania's deep gratitude for his tireless work to find solutions to conflicts around the world and for his steadfast commitment to peace, dialogue and respect for international law. I also thanked him for his continued efforts to mitigate the humanitarian, economic and global food security impact of Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine. Romania will remain a strong and reliable supporter of effective multilateralism, of the UN80 reform initiative and of the Pact for the Future, working to build a stronger UN, better equipped to respond to today's challenges.

Atatürk once told the Romanian Foreign Minister: "The only wise way is to consider all humanity as a single body and all nations as members of that body." This award honors that very spirit of global interdependence and empathy. Congratulations to @antonioguterres and the @UN for their tireless work for that "single body" we all belong to. 🕊 👏

During the Carpathian Eight Summit, I held a bilateral meeting with President of Romania @NicusorDanRO. I’m grateful that we have an active dialogue and meaningful cooperation between our countries. Today, we are expanding it with another dimension – a regional one, focused on our shared Carpathians. This has significant potential not only for our economies, but also for security and stronger ties between our people. We discussed the projects where we can pick up the pace and help each other. This includes SAFE and the joint production of drones, infrastructure and humanitarian issues, and, of course, security in the Black Sea region. I thank Romania for supporting the Carpathian Initiative and its consistent assistance to Ukraine.

By now 🇹🇷 and 🇷🇴 Armed Forces are training / exercising / operating together almost on a constant basis, on the land, in the air or at sea, either under NATO umbrella or on a bilateral basis. At this very moment two exercises are being conducted in Romania where 🇹🇷 forces join 🇷🇴. First is “Eastern Shield 2026" conducted between September 16 - October 2. This exercise is about air defense which is extremely relevant these days. We are taking part with an important number of military and technical personnel as well as our air defense systems.

🇷🇴🤝🇹🇷Very productive meeting at the Romanian Embassy in Ankara with Mr. Mehmet Dinler, Honorary Consul of Romania in Göreme (Nevşehir-Kayseri). Discussed strengthening Romania's presence and supporting Romanian citizens visiting Cappadocia. Thanks for the active engagement!🇷🇴🇹🇷

On the brink of #InternationalDayofDemocracy, we recognize the crucial role of media in fostering democratic participation. #MediaFreedom is a key pillar of democracy. Romania strongly supports journalists & their reporting, including by voluntary financial contributions to @coe Platform to Promote the Protection of Journalism and Safety of Journalists, as a tool to strengthen public trust & democratic resilience.

🇷🇴🇹🇷Strengthening ties in Ankara! Great discussion at the Embassy of Romania with Mr. Mehmet Erdem, Honorary Consul of Romania in Șanlıurfa, on advancing local projects across southeastern Türkiye. Key priorities: Trade & Business; Culture & Education; Consular Services. 🇷🇴🇹🇷
