Realitatea TV had this to say (as translated by yours truly):

600 US soldiers will be arriving tonight and Thursday night at the Mihail Kogălniceanu base. The soldiers will be participating in joint exercises with Romanian soldiers.

Initially, Washington had announced the arrival of 1000 US soldiers at the Constanţa County base. The military exercises will commence on August 17th and end at the end of October.

Explanation:

In order for a foreign army (be it even a NATO member or even the US Army) to be able to enter Romanian soil (excluding an invasion, of course :p ) the Parliament of Romania has to pass a Law that approves said entry. The Law is proposed by the Ministry of National Defense and includes the number of foreign soldiers that will enter the country. The specified number is maximal, because had the law have been for 600 soldiers and 601 would have had to come in, a new law would have had to be passed for that extra person.

Simple enough, right?

PS: Trying to make a headline this way denotes lack of intelligence and of professionalism. Do you realize, my esteemed moron journalist who wrote that summary (can’t very call it an article now, can I?) that any mention of keywords such as “USA”, “US Army”, etc. in the local press will make it into next morning’s briefings of the Ministry of National Defense, Romanian Government, US Embassy, etc? And that you will be causing irritation and stress for no reason whatsoever, whilst you continue to smoke your bad cigarettes and laugh through those yellow teeth of yours, without even realizing you’re placing the stigmata of unprofessionalism and lack of ability to think over all the Romanian press?

What am I smoking here? You won’t. You’re too far gone.
