Romania’s Foreign Ministry on Thursday denied an alleged transfer of U.S. nuclear weapons stationed in Turkey to Romania.

“The Foreign Affairs Ministry firmly rejects these pieces of information,” the official Agerpres news agency reported the ministry as saying.

EurActiv.com reported on Thursday, citing two anonymous “independent sources,” that the United States had started transferring nuclear weapons stationed in Turkey to Romania, against the background of worsening relations between Washington and Ankara.

One of seven news reports of Romania officially denying the any move of US nuclear weapons to Romania.

Seems the rumor mill is running full tilt.

I do not believe the weapons have been moved to Romania

I don't know where they've been moved, but I do have an idea where they'll end up.

Apparently the leak that the nukes were sent to Romania was a ruse to cover up the real story — that Obama ordered them destroyed. (just making this up ... but it is certainly possible)

More reason for Russia to invade Romania, then. It is, after all, the “near abroad.”

One would have been able to tell if a departing plane carried nukes. It would have been escorted by weapon carrying airmen on foot all the way to the takeoff point. At least three.

Obama: “Well, we hired some local truck drivers to make the delivery, and we have no clue what happened to them after the pickup. We’re looking all over the place for them now. But, this is just a distraction... designed by the enemies of our country to try and make us lose sight of how racist and evil Trump is... so we must remain focused on the election”.

Erdogan will demand several billion dollars in cash before he allows our nukes to be moved.

If 4 US citizens are worth 400 mil, he knows bambam will pay way more than that for the bombs.

If the U.S. is removing nuclear weapons from Turkey then I expect that they’d be bringing them back to the U.S. and not Romania.

You're about the closest one to right here, the US officially always has had "no comment" on matters of nuclear weapon deployment.

Romania has had 12 F-16's for only two years and two F-22's stationed for four months, plus no secure facilities for nuclear weapons, so I would bet they're not in Romania.

“plus no secure facilities for nuclear weapons”

There are only a few secure nuke storage facilities in Europe. They are well known.

My bet is nukes never existed in Turkey. This was a way to further condemn America.

Neither do I. Biden is visiting Turkey on 8/24. He made a little slip recently and I fear they are going to give the codes away. Too much disinformation and redirection being floated about by the occupation media. This is very ugly.

Our Terrorist in Chief will do anything to destroy the US and dump as many problems on President Trump as he can.

I would expect them to say exactly what is best for Romania, and that appears to be exactly what they said.

I also believe them.
