The President of Romania Klaus Iohannis will be received on May 7 at the White House by Joe Biden, the presidential administration announced.

President Iohannis will make an official visit to the United States from May 7-8.

During the same visit to the United States, the Atlantic Council will honor the Romanian president with the Distinguished International Leadership Award for his “remarkable career, his exemplary leadership of Romania and his transatlantic and European leadership role.”

A special place in the exchange of views between the two heads of state will be occupied by the situation in Ukraine and the Black Sea basin, as well as the strengthening of security in the Euro-Atlantic area, announced the Romanian presidency.

“The leaders will emphasize their continued support for Ukraine as it continues to defend itself against Russian aggression. They will also review the many areas in which Romania and the United States work together, including energy, economic cooperation and our shared democratic values,” the White House said in a statement.
