President Klaus Iohannis is paying a visit to the Danube Delta on Friday

Published on

President Klaus Iohannis will pay a visit to the Danube Delta on Friday, on the occasion of the Day of the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve (RBDD), the Presidential Administration informed. „With the special variety of flora and fauna, the Danube Delta is an objective of major interest for national and international biodiversity,” the quoted source says, write Agerpres.

The Presidential Administration shows that the visit to the Danube Delta confirms the constant concern of president Klaus Iohannis for issues related to the environment, biodiversity conservation and limiting the effects of climate change at the national and international level.

„The objectives related to the protection of the rich flora and fauna must be harmoniously combined with the social and economic development of the communities living in the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve,” the source mentions.

The Presidential Administration emphasizes that, in addition to plastic pollution or the insufficient exploitation of natural resources from a sustainability perspective, the Danube Delta has also faced the negative impact of climate change in recent years, the consequences of which – long periods of drought, the deterioration of water quality and the decrease of reserves of fish – endanger the unique biodiversity of the Delta, as well as the well-being of the communities living in the region.

„From this perspective, the visit of the president of Romania also has the role of contributing to finding solutions for the challenges faced by the Delta and to mobilizing the relevant actors in the implementation of optimal measures,” the source says.

„The value of the natural heritage of the Danube Delta has been recognized by its inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage List and in the RAMSAR Convention List. Also, the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve is included in the European network of protected natural areas, being a Natura 2000 site,” the Presidential Administration says.
