EC: Before setting a date for accession to Euro, Romania must meet criteria
ACTMedia - 14 Noiembrie 2011
Before setting a date for a state's accession to the euro area, the criteria stipulated in the Treaty must be met, a European Commission (EC) spokesman said in Brussels on Friday, as an answer to a question on Romania's intention of maintaining its objective of accessing the monetary union in 2015.
Before setting a definite deadline between the Commission and a member state, the criteria stipulated in the Treaty must be met, EC spokesman Olivier Bailly told a press conference in Brussels.
Therefore, we must work on this element for the beginning, and, once these criteria are met according to a plan established between the Commission and Romania, we shall be able to jointly set a date for this country's accession to the euro area, he added, answering a question of the press.
President Traian Basescu on Thursday, November 10, in Berlin, said that Romania maintained its objective of joining the euro area in 2015.
