Romania has been in the news recently due to various events, including the country's approval to join the Schengen Area for air and sea travel in 2024, a court rejecting Andrew Tate's request to visit his ill mother in the UK, and a Russian drone crashing in Romania after an attack on a Ukrainian port. Additionally, Romania inaugurated an international training hub for F-16 jet pilots from allied countries and Ukraine, and the country accused the Kremlin of irresponsible escalation following the drone incident.
