Serghei Lavrov, despre baza de la Deveselu: „Este un secret”

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov humorously dodged a question about the Deveselu military base's status as a target for Russia due to the U.S. missile defense system there. During a press conference following the UN General Assembly, a Romanian journalist reminded Lavrov of President Putin's past statements regarding the base. Lavrov's response was light-hearted, indicating it was a secret. The Deveselu base became operational in 2016, prompting Putin to express concerns about its missile capabilities. Romania's Foreign Ministry has since clarified that the base is defensive and not aimed at Russia.
