The aeronautics industry can become competitive only if there will be a message of unity from all involved parties, the Minister of Economy, Florin Spataru, declared on Tuesday, during a specialized conference, in Parliament, Agerpres reports.
The Ministry of Economy allocated this year a record-budget for the defence industry, given that almost nobody was interested in this sector in the last two years, Spataru added.
"The military aeronautics industry depends on investments and allocation from the state budget. That is why I wish to specifically discuss about the needs of this important sector, both for defence as well as for Romania's economy. I am convinced that the discussion could take hours, even days (...) When I took over this term I established very clear objectives, and one of these is the added value in Romania's economy under the umbrella of a strategy that will reflect reality in the field," Spataru said.
In mid-February, the Minister of Economy declared that he wishes for a new airplane to be manufactured, as a state project, by Romanian companies, which could be used in our country, as well as globally.
