Ponta said Romania must carefully weigh its next steps to avoid being punished for what went wrong between 2010 and 2011 in what concerns its absorption of European Union funds. He also said Romania’s poor results in the previous years might be taken into account for future fund allocations from the EU budget.
Ponta added an extraordinary summit reuniting the prime ministers of EU member states will be held at the end of November to discuss EU’s 2014-2020 budget.
