The Romanian leader stressed the importance of maintaining strong ties with the United States while warning against any attempts at undemocratic influence over European politics.
"It would be a problem if the US tried to influence politics undemocratically like the Russians are doing," he noted.
Although he acknowledged the pressure from the US for a ceasefire in Ukraine, he remained cautious regarding immediate prospects for peace. He also underlined the significance of the European Union’s €90 billion ($106 billion) joint debt assistance to Kyiv, explaining that it demonstrates that Ukraine can continue its resistance and signals to Moscow that Kyiv will not yield under external pressure.
In addition, he praised recent US sanctions targeting Russian oil companies Rosneft and Lukoil, calling them "extremely powerful" and supportive of Ukraine. He further stated, "any peace agreement that rewards the aggressor would be detrimental to Europe’s long-term security," while noting that the ultimate decision regarding peace rests with Ukraine.
