London Security Conference 2026

At the London Security Conference 2026, I discussed with the experts in attendance the situation in Romania and the regional security environment, including the increasing frequency of Russian drones entering our airspace and the growing threat posed by hybrid warfare. There is no need for further evidence to demonstrate that the EU’s priority must be substantial investment in dual-use military mobility infrastructure, as well as the integration of the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine into our common security architecture. A Romania at the heart of the European defence decision-making means a more secure border for all of us and greater stability for Europe as a whole.
