Ukraine offers Romania to jointly strengthen protection against drones
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha stated that Kyiv is ready to cooperate closely with Romania following the incident involving a Russian drone in Galați.
According to Censor.NET, this is mentioned in a post by the foreign minister in Kharkiv.
According to him, such incidents demonstrate that Russian aggression extends beyond Ukraine’s borders and poses a direct threat to the entire Black Sea region and Europe.
"The intrusion of a Russian drone into Romania's airspace and its explosion in a residential area of Galați have once again demonstrated that Russian aggression poses a real threat to the Black Sea region and all of Europe," Sibiga said.
Strengthening air defense as a shared priority
The minister emphasized that strengthening Ukraine’s air defense is not only a domestic priority but also a factor in the security of neighboring countries.
"Strengthening Ukraine's air defense is a strategic priority not only for protecting Ukraine, but also for reducing risks to its neighbors," he emphasized.
A call to increase pressure on Russia
Separately, Sibiga called on international partners to impose tougher sanctions and step up support for Ukraine as a key tool for stabilizing the region.
"Strengthening support for Ukraine and increasing pressure on the aggressor, in particular by imposing tougher sanctions, remain extremely important for restoring peace and security in the region," the foreign minister said.
According to the minister, Ukraine is ready to coordinate efforts with Bucharest to establish a more effective system for countering drone threats in border areas and, more broadly, on NATO’s eastern flank.
