Aegis Ashore missile system installed at the Deveselu Military Base will attend an update process
The Aegis Ashore missile system installed at the Deveselu Military Base will go through an upgrade, a previously planned process, over the coming period. According to the Ministry of Defense, this process will not introduce any offensive elements of the system and will not change its strictly defensive character. During the planned period of Deveselu’s execution, which will take several weeks, NATO will provide an alternative defense against ballistic missiles by deploying a US missile defense system in our country. This system is a defensive one and will be under NATO operational control and full political control of the North Atlantic Council, according to a statement./aboboc
Conference on the European Social Fund in Bucharest
A conference on the European Social Fund is taking place today in Bucharest, where the benefits of this fund will be discussed for the citizens of the Union. The event also includes the European Commissioner for Employment and Social Affairs, Marianne Thyssen. She said yesterday that a number of advances in gender equality have been made over the past decades, but equality between men and women is not a reality yet, either in the community space or outside of it:
Marianne Thyssen: These differences in employment, pay and pensions are reinforced by a new trend, there is a new overrepresentation of women in all forms of atypical work. This situation is not only bad for women who are in a worse position, especially in old age, but also bad for the whole society./aboboc
