President Klaus Iohannis on Friday signed a decree on putting up for ratification by Romania's Parliament of a Cooperation Agreement on Partnership and Development between the European Union and its member states, on the one hand, and the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, on the other hand.
"The agreement will form the basis for developing a mutually beneficial relationship in a growing range of areas such as the rule of law, health, rural development, education, science and technology, as well as actions to combat corruption, money laundering, terrorism financing, organised crime and narcotics, and co-operation in the area of migration, which will allow the EU and Afghanistan to tackle global challenges such as nuclear safety, non-proliferation and climate change together," reads the Romanian Government's explanatory memorandum.
