Romania’s Naval Forces have received their first corvette since the fall of communism, with president Nicuşor Dan and Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan attending the flag-raising ceremony of the HISAR-class vessel Rear Admiral August Roman in Istanbul on June 20, according to the Romanian Presidential Administration.
The ceremony, held at the Istanbul Shipyard, marked the ship’s entry into operational service with the Romanian Naval Forces. Further procedures for the vessel’s transfer to Romania will be completed at a later stage.
