(…) In 2014, there was no military presence of the United States in this part of Europe, and there were no NATO forces here, except for our forces, which were, of course, members of NATO at the time, but not There was no presence of allies here.This presence is the result of our cooperation and work with the President to create the Bucharest Nine Formula, hosted by the President (Romania) here in Bucharest in 2015, the arrangements we adopted at that time, and which we subsequently submitted to the NATO Summit in Warsaw in 2016. Work on it all the time – Doda noticed.
