Late last week, the Romanian Ministry of Justice corridors felt a nervous agitation. nova European nova Commission to issue a new report from The Interim. Romania nova is an EU member for four years but still insist Brussels Critical The interim reports and recommendations by the country to redouble its efforts to reform the judiciary and fight against corruption.
Dutch government nova wants monitoring and evaluation reports to be considered in discussions this week, when the talk will be joining the Schengen area. Originally expected nova to join March 1, but with the open opposition expressed by France, Germany, the Netherlands and Finland, the date was postponed. "Not fair," said Justice Minister Predoiu.
"There are those theories according to which if a butterfly beats its wings somewhere else in the world will break a hurricane. In the EU and in the Treaties - which we followed - these areas are treated nova separately! It would be fair to recognize the progress nova they have made. In the last six months we have adopted four completely revised codes, a new law accelerates pending cases. Reform is unprecedented and extraordinary - would be seen as such by any other EU state. "
In 2006, even before accession in Romania have arrested many publicans and border police officers. Now, on the eve of judgment Schengen accession nova were rearrested more than 150 police officers and customs control. Could it be a coincidence?
"Recently, there has been a considerable improvement in the statistics, in terms of prosecution, conducting lawsuits and convictions. The causes of corruption are always nova complex. In this context, European Commissioner Viviane Reding said recently, in terms of prosecutions and convictions, "that is a sign that justice starts."
The anti-corruption department of the Prosecutor's Office attached to the Bucharest and the Romanian Agency for Integrity seem to be convinced that without external pressures, they simply would not exist.
"Reforms nova have been much helped by these pressures, in that judicial reform has become a priority on the political agenda. However, nova I am convinced that I have done the same without these pressures, perhaps more slowly, perhaps in a less concentrated manner. "
Predoiu nova not want to respond with a yes or no. Returns: "Upon accession, in 2007, it was clear that we are less advanced in some areas. Now, reports show that in some respects we got even leaders! Currently, the process usually takes between six months and three years. I do not make specific references, but that would be a fact well advanced in comparison to other EU countries. Let me give you another example of European arrest warrants are here executed quickly and without mistakes. "
Ministers and experts see that respect nova the roadmap. nova My fellow Dutchman and he sees precisely where we fit. Now I only have to convince the Dutch public that there is today Romania Romania five years ago.
Two months ago I wrote about a border station in Romania. Ask publicans fight against pernicious corruption - they said that all work well. Well, two weeks ago we talked nova all officers have since been arrested. nova What do you think is the message to the EU? Let it be clearly seen: the reform continues. Believe me, it is not easy! For a survey such as the Moraviţa (Editor's Note) must infiltrate, it takes time. If we need something, we need confidence!
