He recalled that on 23rd&#13;<br \/>\nAugust 1939, the entire world, not just Central and Eastern Europe, was&#13;<br \/>\ncondemned to a cruel future, adding that the Ribbentrop-Molotov&#13;<br \/>\nPact was a criminal conspiracy in the wake of which entire generations were&#13;<br \/>\nexposed to the toxic and barbarian effects of totalitarian ideologies with grave long-term consequences. Iohannis also spoke of King Michael I&#8217;s decision&#13;<br \/>\nto break off Romania&#8217;s alliance with Hitler&#8217;s Germany on 23rd August&#13;<br \/>\n1944 and to join the United Nations, a decision which contributed to shortening&#13;<br \/>\nthe war. 23rd August was established by the European Parliament in&#13;<br \/>\n2008 as a day of remembrance for the victims of all totalitarian and authoritarian&#13;<br \/>\nregimes.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong class=cms-bold>Drought.<\/strong>&#13;<br \/>\nThe Mediterranean regions remain threatened by abnormal drought until November,&#13;<br \/>\nwhen close to normal conditions are expected in most of the EU, said the&#13;<br \/>\nEuropean Commission. The areas worst hit by the lack of precipitation are&#13;<br \/>\ncentral and southern Portugal, the whole of Spain, the south of France,&#13;<br \/>\nHungary, Romania and the Republic of Moldova. Linked by scientists to global&#13;<br \/>\nwarming, these exceptionally hot and dry weather conditions have significantly&#13;<br \/>\nreduced the yield of summer crops, according to experts quoted by France Presse.&#13;<br \/>\nThe corn, sun flower and soy harvests are worst hit. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong class=cms-bold>Export.<\/strong>&#13;<br \/>\nIn the first five months of the year, Romania exported grain and grain-based&#13;<br \/>\nproducts worth 2.155 billion euros, up 77% compared with the previous period&#13;<br \/>\nlast year, according to figures published by the National Institute for&#13;<br \/>\nStatistics. The largest amount of exports was recorded in March. Between&#13;<br \/>\nJanuary and May, however, Romania also imported grain and grain-based products worth&#13;<br \/>\n683.5 million euros. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong class=cms-bold>Forests.<\/strong> The National Forest Strategy for 2030&#13;<br \/>\nwhich was unveiled on Monday at an event hosted by the Transylvania&#13;<br \/>\nUniversity in Bra\u015fov lays emphasis on making owners themselves more responsible&#13;<br \/>\nand involved and proposes a new approach to checks and restrictions, said the&#13;<br \/>\nenvironment minister Tanczos Barna. He underlined that this new strategy was&#13;<br \/>\ndrafted in the last two years with the help of forestry experts, NGOs, institutions&#13;<br \/>\nand other persons interested in this field and said this is a historic step&#13;<br \/>\nfor Romanian forests. Expanding forested areas is one of the most important&#13;<br \/>\nelements of the strategy. Romania is the first country to present its forest&#13;<br \/>\nstrategy after the publication of a similar document at European Union level. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong class=cms-bold>Tennis.&#13;<br \/>\n<\/strong>Romania&#8217;s Sorana C\u00eerstea on Monday evening defeated Marcela Zacarias of Mexico&#13;<br \/>\nto reach the round of last 16 at the WTA 250 tennis tournament in Cleveland, in&#13;<br \/>\nthe US, worth over 250,000 dollars in prize money.
