President Klaus Iohannis on Thursday said that the ballistic missile defence shield at Deveselu is not targeted against any state, pointing out that is has a strictly defensive role.
"I am saying it once more as clearly as it can be: Aegis Ashore isn't directed against any state, it has a strictly defensive role," Iohannis said at the Cotroceni Presidential Palace after a meeting with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, according to agerpres.ro.
Iohannis commended Stoltenberg for his participation in a ceremony to take place at Deveselu, showing that this marks the strengthening of cooperation in respect to the Strategic Partnership.
Representing the Presidential Administration in the activation event at Deveselu will be presidential advisers Bogdan Aurescu, Dan Mihalache and Ion Oprisor.
Prime Minister Dacian Ciolos will also participate in the activation ceremony of the Aegis Ashore missile shield at Deveselu.
