Romanian President Klaus Iohannis has congratulated German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Monday after the victory in the Sundays’ general elections.
“The relation between Romania and Germany is an excellent, strategic one, which is fully confirmed by the intensity of our political dialogue, of the economic and sectorial cooperation and of the inter-human relations, as well as by sharing the same fundamental values,” says the Romanian President’s message.
“Romania also represents a stable and trustworthy partner for Germany, a promoter of the European project’s consolidation,” Iohannis stated.
The Romanian head of state added that the meeting he had with Angela Merkel in Berlin in June has confirmed the strength of the bilateral partnership and has provided the perspective of a tight collaboration on the European level, including related to the debates on Europe’s future and in the perspective of Romania’s taking over the helm of the EU Council in the first semester of 2019.
