Eduard Hellvig, the head of Romania’s main intelligence service SRI, who is currently on a visit to the USA, met this week with CIA director John O. Brennan.

They talked about the Middle East situation and the security challenges generated by migration. They also discussed about how the two countries could cooperate to prevent and control risks and threats to security.

Hellvig also met the FBI management. The visit is the expression of a tight relationship between SRI and the US intelligence services, and will contribute to the strengthening of the Romanian-US cooperation, reads a SRI press release.

Romania’s President Klaus Iohannis is also going to the US today for the UN summit. Before this event, Iohannis is to meet American vice president Joe Biden at the White House.
