Austrian Chancellor voices conviction that Romania and Bulgaria's accession to EU will happen on January 1, 2007
"Austrian Chancellor Wolfgang Schussel has voiced confidence that Romania and Bulgaria will meet their pledges assumed under the accession treaty to the EU and will secure the success of the EU enlargement policies by entering the EU on January 1, 2007," Romanian Foreign Minister Mihai Razvan Ungureanu said on August 2nd in Salzburg after a meeting of the Stability Pact for South-Eastern Europe.
Ungureanu mentioned having discussed the take-over by Austria of the rotating presidency of the EU in early 2006, with Schussel and Austrian Foreign Minister Uirsula Plassnik, as well as the opportunity this presidency will offer to the boost of co-operation among Danube countries. Austria is “very much in favor of Romania’s accession to the EU in 2007” Romanian foreign minister stated.
"Austria will take a clear stance on Central Europe, and the Austrian experience with Central European co-operation projects will offer a chance for cross-Danube collaboration," Ungureanu said.
The Romanian chief diplomat said the themes of interest for the Austrian presidency of the EU - the development of the Danube river, port, road and railroad infrastructures - is to the advantage of Romania's accession to the EU and its economic development.
