Entrepreneur Bohdan Enoiu, one of the most important figures in the advertising industry in Romania for the last 30 years, recalled in the podcast “Profu’ de Sport” a symbolic moment in Romania after December: the first visit to Bucharest by the former US President George W. Bush, an event organized by Ena .

On November 23, 2002, tens of thousands of Romanians, including various personalities from the world of sports, gathered in front of the Royal Palace in the capital to watch the speech of the then leader from the White House, who was going to announce the decision of the North Atlantic Alliance to accept Romania into its ranks.

“It is a great honor for me to convey a message to the Romanian people: we proudly invite you to join NATO, the great alliance of freedom,” said the leader from Washington. That day, Bush and the former great champion Ilie Nestase were the main characters of a moment that Bohdan Enoiu clearly remembers.

Businessman Bohdan Enoiu tells about the visit of President George W. Bush to Romania for GSP.

“I didn’t organize it, but the CIA, the government, I don’t know (laughs). I gave him the communication side. Everything went well, I also chatted with mr. I liked him, that he involved us in NATO. He had a saying: “Europe is whole and free from the Baltic to the Black Sea” (no – “Europe is whole and free from the Baltic to the Black Sea”). And so it was. Finally, it was nice to visit then, we also had a rainbow.”
