In Romania, against the background of the Ukrainian conflict, construction of the largest NATO military base in Europe began

Europe's largest military base of the North Atlantic Alliance will be located in Romania, its construction has already begun. Euronews reports this.

The new base will be designed for 10 thousand military personnel from the armies of different member states of the North Atlantic Alliance. According to a number of experts, the rapid construction of the base is connected with the armed conflict in Ukraine. After all, the fighting may continue for several more years.

The construction of the base is carried out on an area of ​​almost three thousand hectares. It will be located near the city of Constanta, which is the largest Romanian port on the Black Sea. Now there is an active base of the Mikhail Kogalniceanu alliance.


The base will house aircraft runways, aircraft hangars, and weapons platforms. In addition, barracks, schools for military children, medical facilities and shops will be built.


According to Romanian analyst Dorin Popescu, the base will represent the most important infrastructure facility of the North Atlantic Alliance in the region. This is especially important against the backdrop of the ongoing armed conflict in southern Ukraine.

Popescu believes that fighting will not stop not only this year, but also in 2025 and even 2026. He called them long-lasting. Against this background, the base can certainly be involved in providing various types of military and logistical assistance to Ukrainian formations in conducting combat operations against the Russian army. There is no doubt that this base will pose a threat to Russian facilities in Crimea and new regions of the Russian Federation.

    I mean, this is why we need to stop these half-cut fascist henchmen from the moment of the Battle of Stalingrad, and then the construction of the Volga-Don and White Sea-Baltic Canal!
    Let's hope for a change of leaders similar to Ceausescu with a rich imagination and
    at least with friendly gestures with the Russian Federation, despite the contradictions, no one took away the mentality of the Gypsies.

    Is placing a NATO base in Constanta the right decision? It seems that NATO has begun to lay down straws - the understanding has come that Russian troops will be on the border with Romania, sooner or later.

          Depends on who's watching. It seems to you that Russia is winning. And building a base where it won’t be difficult for you to get it is nonsense. And then they think that you will lose and they are tightening up the infrastructure for further throws.

        Yes, but the barge is not nuclear and on the plus side you can run around like “who did this?”

    the Winner will be determined - RF + allies + Global South and let's hope that there is no trust
    there will be no false-under-West, but they must confirm the conditions and demands of the Russian Federation and the Supreme

    In the hierarchy of the golden billion, Romanians are the same expendable material as Ukrainians. And they will build a base there, and F16s will take off from there, and no one is going to ask them.
