U.S. EMBASSY PRAISES ROMANIA'S ELECTION TO UN SECURITY COUNCIL

The United States Embassy warmly welcomes Romania's election to a rotating seat on the UN Security Council for the years 2004-2005. Romania has shown its commitment not only to the war against terrorism, but to democratic values, freedoms, and the respect for human rights. It also has demonstrated clearly its eagerness to play an active and positive role in the Central and East European region. We look forward to enhancing our bilateral partnership as we join together in carrying out the Security Council's responsibilities connected to the assurance of peace and security around the world.
