Revelation 6:3-4 “when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” 4 And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.
Important Takeaways:
- The Romanian government has begun working to greatly expand Mihail Kogălniceanu Air Base in the southeast end of the country near the Black Sea. Once complete, the giant NATO base will sprawl over an area twice the size of the U.S. Air Force’s Ramstein Air Base in Germany. The plan to dramatically expand the installation underscores NATO member Romania’s strategic position, which has only been magnified since Russia launched its all-out invasion of Ukraine.
- Overall, the initiative will cost some €2.5 billion (just over $2.7 billion at current conversion rates), paid for by the Romanian government, with work spread out over the next 20 years
- According to Euro News Romania, the base will be able to accommodate 10,000 personnel from Romanian and NATO forces combined, as well as their dependents.
- “We are also designing the necessary infrastructure to be able to host and support ground capabilities, for special operations or any other type of military capability which is necessary to provide a response to the [future] security context”
