Romania secures over 20 billion euros in non-reimbursable funds

Romania has successfully completed technical negotiations with the European Commission, securing the preservation of over 20 billion euros in non-reimbursable funds. This achievement signifies a crucial step forward for the country, especially in light of the importance of these funds for various development projects.

Dragoș Pîslaru, the interim Minister of Investments and European Projects, emphasized that the essential objectives of the reforms and investments committed to have been maintained. This commitment to progress has eliminated major risks of penalties that could have resulted in billions of euros lost for Romania.

Concrete solutions have been obtained for significant projects in infrastructure, health, energy, digitalization, education, and the environment. These initiatives are vital for the country's sustainable growth and development.

Additionally, mechanisms have been established to recognize the progress already achieved, further bolstering confidence in the implementation process. It is important for all projects to be fully implemented by the deadline of August 31.

Further details regarding these developments will be communicated at the beginning of next week, as Romania continues to move forward on its path of positive progress. The date of this announcement is June 20.
