We exchanged on the current state of play in the broader Gulf region, particularly on the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz and international efforts to ensure free passage.
We joined calls for the immediate reopening of the Strait and the restoration of safe maritime navigation throughout the region.
We discussed also about EU–GCC strengthened ties and efforts in multilateral organizations such as UN, IMO, FAO.
I reiterated Romania’s solidarity with our Gulf partners directly affected by the military hostilities, including the most recent drone attacks on nuclear energy infrastructure.
Safeguarding maritime security and the operativity of critical waterways remains our shared priority. International efforts are aimed at lowering the pressure on energy prices and ensuring free passage for fertilizers essential in agriculture. @KSAembassyROU@QatarEm_Romania
Europe Day may be marked on a calendar, but its meaning is carried through partnership, dialogue and the relationships we build throughout the year.
Always a pleasure to gather with fellow European ambassadors in Doha to reflect on the strength of Team Europe in Qatar. In a region and a moment defined by rapid change, the European Union and its Member States remain committed to partnership, diplomacy and deeper engagement with Qatar and the GCC.

Romania shows solidarity via humanitarian assistance. It is in this spirit that, alongside our EU partners, we have decided to support the civilian population in Lebanon, severely affected by the current security crisis in the Middle East.
Today, 15 tons of humanitarian aid from the National State Reserves of Romania - food, tents, and essential shelter items - departed for Amman, aboard two aircraft of the Romanian Air Force @MApNRomania. This operation reflects the capacity for rapid response, as well as our effective interinstitutional national and European cooperation.
From Jordan, the humanitarian aid will reach Beirut, Lebanon, as part of a multinational humanitarian convoy.
The decision to provide this assistance was adopted within the National Committee for Emergency Situations, in response to the request transmitted through the EU Civil Protection Mechanism, which also covers 75% of transport costs.
Romania reaffirms its commitment to supporting those in need.
European solidarity means concrete action. @eu_echo@MPopowskiEU@mofalebanon1@MAIRomania@DSU_Romania
România salută acordul de încetare a focului pe o perioadă de două săptămâni între SUA și Iran în Orientul Mijlociu, un pas esențial către dezamorsarea conflictului în regiune.
Romania apreciază eforturile mediatorilor regionali, în special ale Pakistanului, care colaborează cu Egiptul și Turcia.
Subliniem necesitatea ca toate părțile să respecte pe deplin și să pună în aplicare cu bună-credință încetarea ostilităților, ceea ce ar permite negociatorilor să își continue activitatea.
De asemenea, este esențial ca traficul maritim prin Strâmtoarea Ormuz să fie reluat și ca libertatea de navigație să fie garantată în conformitate cu dreptul internațional, contribuind astfel la revenirea la stabilitate și predictibilitate a piețelor energetice și alimentare.
Susținem eforturile diplomatice menite să rezolve toate problemele importante dintre părți. Alături de partenerii noștri internaționali, în special de ONU - inclusiv prin intermediul funcției pe care o deținem în cadrul Consiliului Guvernatorilor AIEA, al UE și ca parte a Inițiativei internaționale pentru Strâmtoarea Ormuz -, România va contribui în continuare la stabilitatea și securitatea regiunii.
