FOREIGN POLICY

In 2023, ‘Romania’s foreign ministry will continue to give special attention to Romania’s Schengen accession and to joining the Organisation for Cooperation and Economic Development (OCDE)’. The announcement was made by the foreign minister Bogdan Aurescu in a Report on Romania’s diplomatic activity released on Thursday. As far as 2022 is concerned, the Report says the year was marked at both a regional and a global level by the war of aggression launched by the Russian Federation against Ukraine. The report also covers the outcomes of the NATO Summit in Madrid in June 2022, and Bucharest’s successful hosting of the meeting of NATO foreign ministers and of the Munich Leaders Meeting in November 2022.
