Felicit Armata Română și piloții celor două avioane de vânătoare F-16 românești pentru succesul misiunii de distrugere a dronei marine aflate în apropierea platformei Neptun Deep din Marea Neagră. Felicit și Garda de Coastă pentru promptitudinea cu care a semnalat prezența dronei în zonă. O acțiune contra timp, în care prioritatea zero a fost protejarea vieții oamenilor care lucrau pe platformă și păstrarea infrastructurii critice în afara oricărui potențial pericol. Condamn cu toată fermitatea intensificarea acestor tipuri de incidente iresponsabile din partea Federației Ruse. Rămânem vigilenți alături de aliații din NATO pentru a ne apăra și a respinge astfel de provocări. #ArmataRomână #NATO #Securitate
