"Mr President, tuberculosis, especially drug-resistant tuberculosis, and the spread of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) as a result of injectable drug use continue to pose serious health problems, worsened by the financial crisis our society is facing, and Romania is among those countries with a significant number of tuberculosis cases.
The financial help Romania has received through the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria ended in September of this year, stranding a significant number of patients who will no longer be able to continue their treatment, have access to appropriate medication or benefit from any kind of support for these diseases. Given that the number of cases of multiresistant tuberculosis and HIV in Eastern European and Central Asian countries will rise due to inadequate funding, I consider that the EU should support the revision of the eligibility criteria for Global Fund finance, stress the importance of policies to reduce the harm caused by drug use in third countries and improve work on social integration for the vulnerable population groups affected."@en1
