“For Romania, Great Britain is not one of the economically consistent partners at the moment. Romanian imports and exports to Great Britain and vice versa don’t have a very large weight (…) We don’t have British capital investments in the Romanian banking system. On the short term, the economic impact of this process is manageable. On the medium and long term, it will depend on the negotiations over leaving the EU,” Ciolos added.
The PM said that, irrespective of the evolution of the process on exiting EU, Great Britain will have the interest to stay connected to the European Economic Community.
