Ion Cristoiu argues that the media exaggerates the significance of Ursula von der Leyen's visit to Romania, which primarily aims to support Ukraine rather than address Romania's security role. He emphasizes that discussions focus on maritime infrastructure and Moldova's EU accession, rather than Romania's strategic importance in the Black Sea region. Cristoiu criticizes the media's portrayal of the visit as overly reverential, suggesting it reflects a submissive attitude towards foreign leaders. He believes the visit is more about financial support for Ukraine than about Romania's interests.
