President Nicușor Dan confirms Romania’s role in global critical metals management chain

President Nicușor Dan stated on February 17 on public Radio Romania Actualități that Romania is involved in international discussions regarding the creation of a common mechanism for the management of critical materials, in partnership with the United States and the European Union, and at the Feldioara factory in Brașov County, a project to process some minerals could be developed in collaboration with an American company.

“As you know, the minister of foreign affairs [Oana Țoiu] was in Washington two, three weeks ago, at which point a discussion began - the United States, several European partners, the European Union, also present, through representatives, other countries - to constitute a, how should we call it, a kind of new world trade organization dedicated to critical metals. And the partnership will continue with both the United States and the European Union on this issue,” president Dan said.
