Summary/Abstract: As a NATO member state, Romania continues to be, according to the author, a dynamic factor in the process of implementing the assurance and adaptation measures adopted at the summit in 2014, organising national military exercises and hosting numerous Allied naval, land and air exercises. Romania is among the six countries on the eastern flank of the Alliance that will have its own NATO Force Integration Unit (NFIU) operational up to the NATO Summit in July 2016, which will be a major contribution to the Alliance potential to deploy the Very High Readiness Joint Task Force (VJTF) on the eastern flank, to organise large-scale exercises and to pre-position equipment, military assets and logistics support elements.
