Romania continues to prove to the world that it is realizing its potential and respects its commitments, declared Wednesday evening, in Constanta, the ambassador of the United States of America to Romania, Kathleen Kavalec, at the opening of the traveling exhibition „Noi, Poporul/We the People”, write Agerpres.

In the speech held in the Museum of History and Archaeology, the US diplomat emphasized both the importance of government ties and those at the social level.

„Travelling through Romania, including here in Constanta, what has repeatedly amazed me are the fundamental experiences that our peoples have had through educational and professional exchanges, experiences that have led to long-lasting friendships and cooperation. (.. .) In the field of defense, as an exemplary NATO ally, Romania has increased spending, contributed to multinational operations abroad, and is now hosting US and NATO troops here in Romania, right next to us. Romania has also supported our partners and neighbors in Ukraine as they defend their country against Putin’s unprovoked and brutal invasion,” said Ambassador Kathleen Kavalec.
