President Klaus Iohannis stated that the vote in the COREPER regarding the candidacy of Laura Codruta Kovesi for the position of European head prosecutor represents an important victory for Romania, showing that the Social Democratic Party (PSD) Government tried to block this candidacy.
He emphasizes that, as he acted in this case, he will continue to support "Romanians with integrity, competence and good professionals for leadership positions at the level of European Union institutions."
