Heads of State and Government from the 26 NATO nations, partners and other representatives from major international institutions will meet in Bucharest, Romania on 2-4 April to discuss NATO enlargement and operations in Afghanistan and Kosovo. The Summit will be NATO’s biggest ever, in terms of the number of partners and international organisations present.
NATO enlargement will be high on the agenda. Allied leaders are expected to consider the membership of aspirant countries that meet the NATO’s performance-based standards and contribute to Euro-Atlantic security, as outlined in the Membership Action Plan (MAP), during the NAC meeting.
At present, three countries - Albania, Croatia and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia- are members of the MAP. In addition, both Georgia and Ukraine are currently engaged in an Intensified Dialogue with the Alliance focusing on their membership aspirations and related reforms.

It’s a great event for Romania. I really look forward to see how things evolve after this Summit, really curious if NATO will get some new members. :friends:
