Summary/Abstract: The history of the Romanian-American bilateral diplomatic relations begins officially 135 years ago. On June 14, 1880, US President Rutherford B. Hayes signed the letter informing Prince Carol I about the appointment of Eugene Schuyler as a diplomatic agent / US general consul in Romania, this time marking the establishment of bilateral diplomatic relations. The first meeting of the members of the Romanian diplomatic mission with the American officials took place on 15 January 1918, when Dr. Constantin Angelescu was received in the White House Diplomats Salon, where he presented his letters of credence to President Woodrow Wilson.The relationship between Romania and the US defines the entire foreign policy strategy of our country and, more than anything else, received special attention from every government. Romania is currently pursuing a broad and successful diplomatic activity aimed at new relations between states, equality and respect among nations, security, thus contributing significantly to the creation of a proper geopolitical climate.
