US Missile Defense Agency

The US military said Tuesday it had intercepted a mock-up of an intercontinental ballistic missile in a first-of-its-kind test that comes amid concerns over North Korea’s weapons program.

State Secretary for Strategic Affairs Bogdan Aurescu on Tuesday reiterated Romania's interest that local firms get involved in the setting up of the Deveselu Base.

Aurescu attended the 2014 Multinational Ballistic Missile Defence Conference organized by the U.S. Agency for Ballistic Missile Defense and hosted by Bucharest.
