Being located at the EU's eastern border, Romania is aware of both the risks and benefits accorded by this geo-strategic position. For this reason, Romania supports and promotes, on the one hand, the construction of alternative energy transit routes, primarily the Nabucco gas pipeline, while, on the other, it supports the process of clarifying and strengthening partnership relations with Russia, which is a major player in the international arena, not only in this difficult sector involving the supply of energy resources.
Aflata la granita de est a UE, Romania este constienta atat de riscurile cat si de avantajele pe care le confera aceasta pozitie geo-strategica si, din acest motiv, Romania sustine si promoveaza, pe de o parte, construirea de rute de transport alternative pentru energie, in primul rand Gazoductul Nabucco, dar, pe de alta parte, sustine procesul de clarificare si de intarire a relatiilor de parteneriat cu Rusia, actor major pe scena internationala, si nu numai in acest sector delicat al aprovizionarii cu resurse energetice.
