"The government of Romania is systematically working on meeting the requirements raised by the European Union and the European Parliament. However, there are still a great number of issues to be tackled in numerous areas. The tabled motion for resolution addresses deficiencies critically but fairly. I would like to call attention to the importance of the following amendment proposals, accepted by the Committee on Foreign Affairs.
The situation of the draft Minority Act included in the programme of the Romanian Government is uncertain. The delaying tactics of the Romanian governing parties is unacceptable, and this is why it is necessary to issue a strict warning to Bucharest. A further important issue is the provision of mother-tongue university education for ethnic minority citizens, particularly in view of the fact that the situation of the more than 1.5 million indigenous Hungarians, of the Hungarian community, is not satisfactory in this respect. I emphasise that the unquestionable means of protecting minorities and ensuring their legal certainty is the actual implementation of the principle of subsidiarity and self-government, including the establishment of certain types of autonomy.
Ladies and gentlemen, let us not amend paragraph 26! The draft report mentions property restitution, but the issue of church property restitution has not been settled yet. Romania needs reforms and many new laws in the area of environmental protection. Once more, I would like to point out critically the exploitation plan of the gold mine at Rosia Montana, which must be solved taking into account the opinion of the competent civil organisations and affected countries, such as Slovakia and Hungary. Finally, it is very important to express firmly the possibility of enforcing the safeguard clause.
Compliance with the requirements listed means the implementation of the Copenhagen criteria. Like all candidate states so far, Romania can only obtain the licence needed for accession on the basis of actual results."@en1
