Carrying out your missions in Romania is a valuable means of preserving peace. The Portuguese detachment will be integrated into national and allied structures, in order to increase responsiveness, interoperability and, last but not least, to emphasize allied solidarity. The Romanian military is looking forward to training again with the Portuguese troops. We did our part. We have increased our own reaction capacity and we perform day and night, 24/7/365 activities in the fields of land, air and sea forces. The presence of Allied troops in Romania is the new normal. I emphasize, once again, that the measures adopted are eminently defensive, adapted to the security situation in our area of ​​responsibility “, said General Petrescu.
