Former Romanian Foreign Minister Emil Hurezeanu said during an interview that President Donald Trump has not changed his style and that the United States has been reluctant to engage directly with Romania until the first NATO ministerial meeting. He explained that the new Trump administration has been cautious in its approach to Romania, noting that the country has been caught between the cancellation of elections and the possibility of new ones, and that the Romanian government has struggled to secure a clear stance on NATO troop withdrawals. Hurezeanu compared Trump’s leadership to that of Vladimir Putin, describing the former as a democratic leader who sometimes takes a step back, while the latter is a former KGB officer with a mix of politics and power. He also spoke about the tension within the MAGA movement regarding anti‑Semitic sentiments and the need for a balanced approach to Romania’s foreign policy. Finally, he suggested that Romania could revive the role of a special envoy to better communicate its interests abroad.
