European Commissioner for Regional Policy Corina Cretu stated on Monday in Bacau that Romania hasn't been sufficiently prepared to access European funds for quality projects ever since January 2007, when it joined the EU, mentioning as impediments, in terms of the delays that accumulated over time, the bureaucracy, the additional Romanian legislation in the area, but also the challenges with the court regarding the tenders with long settlement terms.
The European Commissioner is paying a visit on Monday and Tuesday to Bacau, together with Prime Minister Viorica Dancila, touring a series of European funding landmarks and attending the conference called "Urban investments in Europe: challenges for change."
