<p>The Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on June 10 the participation of foreign affairs minister Emil Hurezeanu in the delegation led by Romanian president Nicușor Dan at the Ukraine - South-Eastern Europe Summit, <a href="https://www.news.ro/politic-intern/presedintele-nicusor-dan-participa-la-summitul-ucraina-europa-de-sud-est-care-are-loc-la-odesa-in-ucraina-1922400011002025060622063118?mc_cid=1d9b1969fd&amp;mc_eid=cd1f92f96c" rel="noopener" target="_blank">News.ro</a> reported.</p>

<p>During his first conference as president last week, the Romanian president announced that he would visit Chisinau and would immediately follow with the summit in Ukraine.</p>

<p>In a previous bilateral talk with Ukraine’s president, Volodymir Zelensky, <a href="https://www.romania-insider.com/romania-nicusor-dan-support-ukraine-june-2025" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Nicușor Dan confirmed Romania's staunch support to Ukraine</a> and said the specific aid Romania could provide in the future will be discussed in more detail in Odessa.</p>

<p>Romanian isolationist politician George Simion, who advocates against the support the European Union and Romania provide to Ukraine and Moldova, has criticized president Dan’s visit to Ukraine.</p>

<p>"Nicușor Dan has no business in Ukraine. We, Romanians, want peace, not war!" George Simion posted on Facebook.&nbsp;</p>
