Romania reaffirms its strong support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Spain
We firmly and irrevocably deny the ‘unilateral declaration of independence’ of Catalonia, the Romanian Foreign Ministry says în a statement. We reaffirm Romania's strong support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Spain. Spain is a major ally and strategic partner of our country – relationship reflected both at bilateral level and at EU and international level.
We underline that the legitimacy of any process or any action pertaining to the internal order of a State resides in its full compliance with the fundamental law, the rule of law in that State. We reiterate Romania's consistent position in favour of the international law, which does not allow territorial changes to occur without the consent of the state concerned.
The situation generated in Catalonia pertains to Spain's internal order and we hope that it will return as soon as possible to the parameters of the constitutional order of that State.
