President Klaus Iohannis told an activity report meeting on Thursday of the National Anti-Corruption Directorate (DNA) that he will provide unconditional support for the consolidation of the rule of law, pointing out that the part of DNA is essential in the fight against corruption and law observance.
"Romania finds itself at a time when it can confidently walk on the path of consolidated democracies, where the mechanisms of the rule of law are independent of political will. It takes very much poise and wisdom on the part of all the parties involved so that the progress so far will not be wasted. What has to prevail is Romania's desideratum to become a strong country defending the interests of its citizens. In the new paradigm, DNA remains a key institution playing an essential part in the fight against corruption and in law observance. Through our actions in 2016, you proved that the objectives undertaken by you can be turned into palpable realities," said Iohannis.
He added that he will be an unconditional supporter in the consolidation of the rule of law.
"You have in me a partner and unconditional supported in the consolidation of the rule of law, because I firmly believe that Romania's real development does depend on that," said Iohannis.
