Romanian president looks forward for “privileged relationship” with Azerbaijan and Georgia

Romania is looking forward for making “privileged relationship” with South Caucasian countries, declared President Traian Basescu during the annual meeting with the heads of diplomatic missions accredited to Bucharest, official website of the Romanian President said.

He focused attention on the strategic significance of the South Caucasus.

“Georgia had an especially high cooperation potential in the fields like energy, transport or infrastructure and that Romania wanted to capitalize the strategic partnership concluded in September 2009 with Azerbaijan”, said the President.

“These countries’ closeness to the EU, and in Georgia’s case to NATO, is of utmost importance in reaching these objectives and will contribute to solving the sub-region’s problems, that is, frozen conflicts or neighboring relationships”, Basescu added.
