We emphasized that, in the Romanian side's view, economic cooperation must be structured through projects of common interest, non-discriminatory, based on criteria of ethnicity, which should not be limited only to certain parts of Romania and which must be financed in compliance with Romanian European legislation, as well as with the agreement of the Romanian side. We are open to supporting Hungarian investments throughout the territory of our country and we will encourage Romanian companies to continue investing in Hungary," Iohannis said, in a joint press conference held together with his Hungarian counterpart, Novak, Agerpres reports.
