EC<\/strong> – European Commission First Vice-President Frans Timmermans has warned Romania\u2019s government that it might end up in court if it continues its policies to relax the fight against corruption. Timmermans made the comments on Monday, October 1st, at the civil liberties committee in the European Parliament ahead of a plenary debate on Romanias rule of law on Wednesday, with Romanian prime minister Viorica Dancila. Romania has made progress in the past, sometimes even spectacular progress, but it\u2019s moving back in a way that would be damaging not only for Romanian democracy but for the place Romania has built as an EU member state,\u201d Timmermans said. Attending the debates on Wedensady, PM Viorica Dancila asked for Romania to be treated as an equal partner within the EU and said that nobody could prevent the country from continuing its European path.<\/p>\n

LAWS<\/strong> – The offshore law, regulating gas exploitation in the Black Sea, was debated on Wednesday in the Chamber of Deputies\u2019 plenary sitting, that decided to send it back to the expert committees. The Social Democratic Party\u2019s deputies made some important changes to the law adopted by the Senate last week. PSD\u2019s amendments were criticized by the opposition MPs as well as by deputies of their coalition partner. Oil companies have expressed concern about the new offshore law, saying that it may discourage new investment in the Black Sea. This is the second time this law is being voted. The Parliament initially adopted the offshore law in early July, but president Klaus Iohannis sent it back for review.<\/p>\n
