American companies are withdrawing from the Black Sea, with Carlyle selling its stake in Black Sea Oil & Gas, raising concerns about Romania's energy security. This follows similar exits by Chevron and ExxonMobil, signaling a potential strategic isolation for Romania amid rising geopolitical tensions. The sale of Carlyle's stake, which was crucial for Romania's offshore gas production, reflects a broader trend of diminishing American investment in the region, particularly as threats from Russia escalate. Experts warn that this withdrawal could undermine Romania's energy independence and stability.
