In this context, President Iohannis underscored that it's important for the elections result to represent a success for the pro-European spirit and sustain an ambitious agenda of Europe's consolidation.
"During Romania's Presidency of the Council of the European Union, Romania will proceed in a visible, committed and constructive manner in the discussions regarding the future of Europe," he stated, bringing to mind that on 9 May 2019 Romania will host in Sibiu the extraordinary summit that will define the development directions of the European project.
He also underscored that in a worldwide complicated period, the people need, more than ever, an united and consolidated Europe.
"Many times we, Europeans, forget how powerful we can be together. I strongly believe that the fate of the European Union must be configured on the foundations of its successful policies, on the main objective of strengthening the European space of freedom, prosperity, security and unity. I hope this is how the future will look like, I hope we will all remain together, committed to his path," President Iohannis concluded.
