| | Minister of State & Foreign Affairs Teodor Melescanu...Partnership for Peace: A Romanian Point of View |
 | | Partnership for Peace has projected a way for Partner states, most of which are countries in transition, to reintegrate with European values, practices, and goals, and thus complete the deep political and social changes that began with the collapse of communism. |
 | | PFP could equally be an instrument for projecting stability outside its area (the Mediterranean, the Balkans, the Black Sea, the Middle East) by changing the mentality of military cooperation and the approach to addressing security concerns. |
 | | Since democracy, peace, and security cannot survive on islands, "NATO-type" relations should be established between all PFP countries, confirming their commitment to defend the same values the Alliance itself is pledged to protect: democracy, stability, and welfare. |
