We only have to continue firmly and wisely and&#13;<br \/>\nunite our efforts to overcome this crisis the Romanian president&#13;<br \/>\nsaid on Tuesday, when in his fresh appeals called on the Romanians&#13;<br \/>\nand institutions to continue to observe the measures aimed at&#13;<br \/>\npreventing the coronavirus pandemic. &#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nAfter&#13;<br \/>\ntalks with government officials&#13;<br \/>\non the latest economic developments, the current situation in the&#13;<br \/>\ncountry&#8217;s healthcare system and the relaxation measures during the&#13;<br \/>\nstate of alert Romania is currently seeing, Iohannis has pointed out&#13;<br \/>\nthat if the rules imposed by the authorities to curb the pandemic are&#13;<br \/>\ngoing to be constantly violated, we are going to see new outbreaks&#13;<br \/>\nand a new wave of contamination. &#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nThe&#13;<br \/>\nRomanian official has called on the local authorities to play a&#13;<br \/>\nfirmer role in the communities under their administration. Iohannis&#13;<br \/>\nhas recalled the last two difficult months adding that it would be a&#13;<br \/>\nshame to waste what was gained with such big sacrifice during the&#13;<br \/>\nstate of emergency.  &#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nKlaus&#13;<br \/>\nIohannis:&#13;<br \/>\nWe&#13;<br \/>\nsee a lot of irresponsible people acting in bad faith, spreading fake&#13;<br \/>\nnews and all sorts of conspiracy theories in order to make people&#13;<br \/>\ndoubt the severity of the situation and to spread distrust. Suchlike&#13;<br \/>\napproaches, which are toxic because they are ignoring evidence, and&#13;<br \/>\nare eroding the state authority, can also affect solidarity and&#13;<br \/>\nsocial responsibility, which are crucial in our attempt to overcome&#13;<br \/>\nthis difficult period. When we were united and responsible citizens&#13;<br \/>\ntogether with experts and government members we were able to save&#13;<br \/>\nlives and curb the spreading of the new coronavirus.

Iohannis explained that we cannot speak&#13;<br \/>\nabout starting all&#13;<br \/>\nfrom&#13;<br \/>\nscratch as economic&#13;<br \/>\nactivity&#13;<br \/>\nwas not completely halted in the past months and there were sectors&#13;<br \/>\nof the economy, such as constructions, functioning at full throttle. &#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nAccording&#13;<br \/>\nto the latest data issued&#13;<br \/>\nby Eurostat, Romania was leader at European level in this respect&#13;<br \/>\nwith a 2% growth as compared to the similar period of the past year&#13;<br \/>\nwhereas the general evolution at the EU level was negative. According&#13;<br \/>\nto the National Institute for Statistics, constructions and trade&#13;<br \/>\nlargely contributed to the slight growth Romania saw in the first&#13;<br \/>\nquarter of the year. &#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n(translated&#13;<br \/>\nby bill)<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Romanian president Klaus Iohannis has said the measures taken during the state of emergency proved effective and has again called for unity<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":107,"featured_media":85833,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37738],"tags":[35339,29594,29125,35416],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-85832","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-today-in-the-news","tag-coronavirus","tag-eurostat","tag-iohannis","tag-pandemic"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
