The Black Sea is no longer an area of cooperation, but a theater of war, as a result of the aggressive actions of the Russian Federation, stated, on Thursday, the Minister of National Defense, Angel Tîlvăr, during a telephone conversation with his Ukrainian counterpart, Rustem Umerov. The Romanian minister reiterated the firm message of condemnation of the unjustified attacks carried out against the norms of international law carried out by the Russian Federation against the civil port infrastructure of Ukraine on the Danube, in the proximity of the border with Romania. Angel Tîlvăr reconfirmed Romania’s firm commitment regarding the continuation of the support given to Ukraine, including at the level of training within the European Union Military Assistance Mission for Ukraine and within the INTERFLEX Operation, led by Great Britain. Rustem Umerov sent a message of gratitude regarding Romania’s decision to donate a Patriot air defense system to Ukraine. He also thanked for the humanitarian, diplomatic and food support given to his country since the first day of the Russian war of aggression.
