27 April 2007 [12:31] - TODAY.AZ
Romania is a member of the European Union and this factor predetermines Romania's role in international relations, former President of Romania Ion Iliescu told journalists in Baku while commenting on the prospect of Romania's joining GUAM.

Ion Iliescu said Russia's interests should be taken into consideration when the South Caucasus countries NATO membership in perspective is considered.

"The South Caucasus countries' NATO membership may be considered in future. But Russia's interests certainly should be taken into consideration. Azerbaijan's EU membership is a matter of future as well."

Assessing possible US attack on Iran, former Romanian president said US should refrain from repeating the mistake it made in Iraq. APA
