Romania sent proposals to the United States to increase the American military presence in the country. Bucharest has expressed its willingness to pay for the stay of the US military, the country's Defense Minister Stefan Radu Oprea said in an interview with the Digi24 television channel. "We made proposals according to which we could place American soldiers in existing bases in Romania, and of course we could speed up the expansion of the base in the commune of Mihail Koglenicano," he noted. The minister also said that the amount quoted in the media according to which Romania offered to pay for the presence of American soldiers in the country is not true. According to Oprea, it is not 15 thousand euros, it is a little less. Earlier they wrote in the media that the Belgian Ministry of Foreign Affairs believes that the USA, under the current leader, is no longer a reliable ally for both the country and the EU countries.
