Romania unlikely to join no-fly zone over Ukraine initiative, says President Dan

Agerpres reported the information.

“We held initial discussions on this issue with people from the national government, advisors, military personnel, and foreign policy experts. For now, most likely no,” said the Romanian leader.

He also stressed that Bucharest could reconsider this position depending on how events unfold.

“There are international norms regarding what it means to be in a conflict or not. According to some interpretations held by the majority, doing this would mean entering the conflict,” Dan added.
