Romanian Ambassador to Kuwait H.E. Daniel Tanase hosted a reception to mark the 100th anniversary of his country’s National Day at the Sheraton Hotel on 27 November. Kuwait’s assistant minister for consulate affairs Ambassador Sami Al-Hamad was the chief guest on the occasion.
In his address to the gathering, the Ambassador Tanase said the occasion was of special significance as Romanians were celebrating 100 years of unity since the regions joined together to form the Kingdom of Romania.
He lauded the longstanding relations between Romania and Kuwait and pointed out that during the 55 years of friendly ties the two countries had exchanged many high-level meetings, including the recent meeting on 21 October between Romanian Prime Minister Viorica Dancila and H.H. the Prime Minister Sheikh Jaber Al-Mubarak Al-Hamad Al-Sabah. He also said that his country supports the mediation efforts of the Humanitarian leader, H.H. the Amir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah in the region.
He emphasized that Romania attaches great importance to supporting and strengthening trade and investment ties with Kuwait, as well as continuing to support and promote relations in all fields. Ambassador Tanase noted that his country will assume the presidency of the European Union next January, which will open new horizons for cooperation between Romania, EU and Kuwait.
Romania is a picturesque tourist destination, with the Transylvania region ringed by the Carpathian Mountains, the forested region of Maramures, the shimmering plains of Wallachia and the sinuous wetlands of the Danube Delta, all providing attractive locations. The country also overflows with a unique history, culture, and spirituality, while remaining modern and appealing with its bustling and cosmopolitan capital city, Bucharest, considered the ‘Little Paris’ of the east.
