Description:
My first question to the reader is what is Romania’s Grand Strategy? By Grand Strategy I mean the employment of all instruments of power (e.g. diplomatic, informational, military, and economic) available for the furtherance of its security and national interests. Security and national interests include both foreign and domestic. I contend that the designers of a nation’s grand strategy ought to include representatives of the major political parties, civilian leaders in the areas of the Foreign Service, public affairs, and economic matters, as well as the Ministry of Defense. Without a unified grand strategy how does a nation develop a comprehensive National Security Strategy and then how does the Ministry of Defense construct a National Military Strategy?
