    Rumänien: Gastgeberland der NATO-Übung “Defender-Europe”

    “Die rumänische Armee ist in hohem Ma‎ße in der Lage, Verteidigungsoperationen auf nationaler und NATO-Ebene durchzuführen, sollte Artikel 5 des NATO-Vertrags aktiviert werden”, sagte Generalstabschef Daniel Petrescu am Sonntag am Rande der von Rumänien ausgerichteten multinationalen Übung DEFENDER-Europe 21, die als die grö‎ßte NATO-Übung der letzten 25 Jahre gilt. Die multinationale Übung wurde vom Kommando der US-Armee für Europa und Afrika geplant und durchgeführt und hatte zum Ziel, die Reaktionsfähigkeit und Interoperabilität der US-Streitkräfte mit der NATO und den Partnerstaaten zu verbessern. In diesem Jahr haben an der Übung 28.000 Militärs aus 26 Ländern teilgenommen, die in über 12 Staaten, darunter auch in Rumänien, trainiert haben. Bei dieser Gelegenheit betonte Daniel Petrescu, dass Rumänien ein wichtiger Akteur in der Schwarzmeerregion und an der NATO-Ostflanke ist, der für Sicherheit und Stabilität sorgt und einen Beitrag zur Sicherheit und Stabilität auf regionaler, europäischer und euro-atlantischer Ebene leistet.



    All dies ist aufgrund der beiden grundlegenden Elemente der nationalen Sicherheit und Verteidigung möglich – Rumäniens NATO-Mitgliedschaft und seine strategische Partnerschaft mit den USA. Nach Angaben der rumänischen Behörden leistet Rumänien einen aktiven und bedeutenden Beitrag zu den Missionen und Operationen der NATO, beteiligt sich an der Gestaltung der Politik und der Entscheidungen der NATO und bemüht sich um eine verstärkte Zusammenarbeit mit den NATO-Partnern. Bukarest stellt allerdings seit Jahren 2 % seines BIP für Verteidigungsausgaben bereit.



    Letztes Jahr verabschiedete das rumänische Parlament einen Beschluss über die Gründung des NATO-Hauptquartiers Multinationales Korps Süd-Ost in Sibiu, mit einer vorübergehenden Stationierung des Zentrums in Bukarest. Am Sonntag, am Rande der DEFENDER-Europe 21 Übung, sagte Generalstabschef Daniel Petrescu, dass das Kommando das notwendige Niveau erreicht hat, um als NATO-Abteilung zu funktionieren. Petrescu sagte im Anschlu‎ß, dass sich diese Struktur schrittweise weiterentwickeln wird, bis sie im Jahr 2024 ihre endgültige Einsatzfähigkeit erreicht. Das Süd-Ost-Kommando soll die Verteidigungsposition der NATO an ihrer Ostflanke konsolidieren und die Befehls- und Kontrollkette auf regionaler Ebene sicherstellen.

    Romania-NATO relations

    The Romanian Army is capable to a large extent to carry out defensive
    operations at national and NATO level should Article 5 in the NATO Treaty were
    activated, chief of general staff, Daniel Petrescu said on Sunday on the
    sidelines of the DEFENDER-Europe 21 multinational exercise hosted by Romania, the
    biggest NATO exercise in the last 25 years. The multinational exercise was planned
    and carried out by the US Army Europe and Africa Command, and was aimed at boosting
    the response capacity and interoperability of US Forces with NATO and partner
    states. This year, the exercise was due to deploy 28,000 military from 26
    countries, which will be training in 30 grounds in over 12 states, including in
    Romania.

    On this occasion, Daniel Petrescu highlighted that Romania is an
    important actor in the Black Sea region and NATO’s eastern flank, providing
    security and stability and contributing to the security and stability at
    regional, European and Euro-Atlantic levels. All this is possible due to the
    two fundamental elements of national security and defense – Romania’s NATO
    membership and its Strategic Partnership with the United States. According to Romanian
    authorities, Romania is actively and significantly contributing to NATO
    missions and operations, gets involved in shaping NATO policies and decisions
    and acts to boost cooperation with NATO partners. Also worth mentioning is that
    Bucharest has been allotting 2% of its GDP to defense spending for years.

    Last
    year, Romania’s Parliament passed a resolution on the foundation of the NATO
    Headquarters Multinational Corps South-East in Sibiu, with a temporary stationing
    of the Center in Bucharest. On Sunday, on the sidelines of DEFENDER-Europe 21, chief
    of general staff Daniel Petrescu said the Command has reached the necessary
    level to allow it to function as a NATO department. The Romanian official said
    this structure will continue to develop progressively until it reaches its
    final operational capacity in 2024. The South-East Command is aimed at
    consolidating NATO’s deterrence and defense posture on its eastern flank and
    ensure the chain of command and control at regional level. (VP)

  • La Roumanie et l’article 5 de l’OTAN

    La Roumanie et l’article 5 de l’OTAN

    « L’armée roumaine est en mesure d’exécuter des opérations de défense, dans un contexte national et allié, en cas d’activation de l’article 5 de l’OTAN. » Cette déclaration a été faite dimanche par le chef de l’Etat-major de la Défense, Daniel Petrescu, dans le cadre de l’exercice DEFENDER-Europe 21, le plus important de l’Alliance en l’espace de 25 ans, qui a aussi eu lieu en Roumanie. Exercice annuel multinational de grande envergure, planifié et dirigé par le Commandement des forces terrestres des États-Unis pour l’Europe et l’Afrique, DEFENDER-Europe vise à accroître la capacité de réaction et le niveau d’interopérabilité des Forces terrestres américaines avec les forces des Etats membres de l’OTAN et partenaires. Cette année, l’exercice était prévu avec la participation d’environ 28 000 militaires de 26 pays, censés s’entraîner, presque simultanément, dans une trentaine de zones d’instruction de 12 États, dont la Roumanie.



    L’occasion pour le chef d’Etat-major de la Défense, Daniel Petrescu, de réitérer que la Roumanie est un acteur important dans la région de la mer Noire et sur le Flanc est de l’Alliance, fournisseur de sécurité et de stabilité et qui contribue de manière significative aux niveaux régional, européen et euro-atlantique. Tout cela, grâce aux deux éléments fondamentaux de la défense et de la sécurité nationales : l’appartenance à l’OTAN et le Partenariat stratégique entre la Roumanie et les États-Unis. Selon les autorités nationales, la Roumanie contribue activement et de manière significative aux missions et opérations alliées, s’investit dans l’élaboration des politiques et décisions de l’OTAN et agit pour accroître la coopération avec ses partenaires alliés. A noter, entre autres, que depuis des années, Bucarest consacre 2 % de son PIB à la Défense.



    Parallèlement, l’année dernière, le Parlement roumain a adopté une décision concernant la création du Quartier général de division multinational Sud-Est dans la garnison de Sibiu (centre), temporairement disloqué dans la garnison de Bucarest. Dimanche, lors de l’exercice DEFENDER-Europe 21, le chef de l’Etat-major de la Défense, Daniel Petrescu, a précisé qu’à l’heure actuelle, le Quartier général avait atteint le niveau nécessaire lui permettant d’opérer en tant que département dans la structure des forces de l’Alliance — point de vue capacité de commandement et contrôle sur le terrain. Et selon lui, le développement de cette structure se poursuivra progressivement jusqu’à ce qu’elle atteigne sa capacité opérationnelle finale en 2024. Le Quartier général de division multinational Sud-Est vise à renforcer la posture de dissuasion et de défense du Flanc est de l’OTAN ainsi qu’à renforcer la cohérence de la chaîne de commandement et de contrôle au niveau régional.

  • România şi articolul 5 al NATO

    România şi articolul 5 al NATO

    Armata
    României este în măsură să execute operaţiuni de apărare, în context naţional
    şi aliat, în situaţia activării Articolului 5 al NATO. Declarația a fost
    făcută, duminică, de şeful Statului Major al Apărării, Daniel Petrescu, în
    contextul desfăşurării, și în România, a exerciţiului DEFENDER-Europe 21, cel mai mare al Alianței din ultimii 25 de
    ani. Exerciţiu anual multinaţional întrunit de mare amploare, planificat şi
    condus de Comandamentul Forţelor Terestre ale SUA pentru Europa şi Africa,
    DEFENDER-Europe are drept scop creşterea capacităţii de reacţie şi a nivelului
    de interoperabilitate ale Forţelor Terestre ale SUA cu forţele ţărilor membre
    ale NATO şi partenere. Anul acesta, exercițiul a fost planificat să se
    desfășoare cu participarea a aproximativ 28.000 de militari din 26 de țări,
    care să se instruiască, aproape simultan, în peste 30 de zone de antrenament
    din 12 state, inclusiv din România.

    Prilej pentru şeful Statului Major al
    Apărării, Daniel Petrescu, să reitereze că România este un actor important în
    regiunea Mării Negre, respectiv pe flancul de Est al Alianţei, furnizând securitate,
    stabilitate şi contribuind semnificativ la acestea în plan regional, european
    şi euro-atlantic. Toate, datorită celor două elemente fundamentale ale apărării şi securităţii naţionale -
    apartenența la NATO şi Parteneriatul Strategic româno-american! Potrivit
    autorităților naționale, România contribuie activ şi semnificativ la misiunile
    şi operaţiunile aliate, se implică în conturarea politicilor şi deciziilor NATO
    și acţionează pentru sporirea cooperării cu partenerii săi aliați. De menționat,
    între altele, că, de ani buni, Bucureștiul alocă 2% din PIB pentru Apărare. Totodată,
    anul trecut, Parlamentul României a adoptat o hotărâre privind înființarea
    Comandamentului Corpului Multinațional de Sud-Est (Headquarters Multinational
    Corps South-East) în garnizoana Sibiu, din centrul României, cu dislocare
    temporară în garnizoana Bucureşti.

    Duminică, cu prilejul exercițiului DEFENDER-Europe 21, şeful Statului Major al
    Apărării, Daniel Petrescu, a precizat că, la ora actuală, Comandamentul – capacitate
    de comandă și control în domeniu terestru – a atins nivelul necesar care să-i
    permită să funcţioneze ca departament în structura de forţe a NATO. Și tot
    potrivit lui, dezvoltarea acestei structuri va continua progresiv, până când va
    atinge capacitatea operaţională finală, în 2024. Prin Comandamentul Corpului
    Multinaţional de Sud-Est se urmărește întărirea posturii de descurajare şi
    apărare a flancului Estic al NATO, precum și o mai mare coerenţă a lanţului de
    comandă şi control în plan regional.
