President Klaus Iohannis on Wednesday stated that the external partners signaling problems related to how the rule of law state is observed in Romania should be taken very seriously, while pointing out that the conclusion drawn by some Romanian politicians that the foreign partners are getting involved in Romania's internal affairs is fundamentally wrong.
"These signals coming from our foreign partners should be taken very seriously. (...) I know that in Romanian politics there are some who accuse our partners of getting involved in our domestic affairs. This conclusion of theirs is fundamentally wrong. (..) We cannot be a part of a community of values while remaining isolated at the same time," said the head of the state, at the joint conference with the PM of the Netherlands, Mark Rutte, who is currently paying an official visit to Romania.
