IIRC we have a military presence in Constanta (and a growing presence on their air force base there), a land-based Aegis system in Deveslu that's been active near a decade and a thriving economy...yeah they are tied into the EU and as we all know they autocrats in Brussels despises independent states...
Again, telling all foreigners East or West to FO seems to be difficult once you let one get a foothold...
