EU Funds Minister, Eugen Teodorovici was invited on the Income show produced by Adrian Măniuţiu on Antenna 3.

"In part, the 2013 targets have been achieved, but the system is so vast that it requires further simplification and barriers breaking. I said the other day that 2014 should be the last year when we talk about reform in this system. It would be awkward to continue talking in 2015 about the same thing. "

Teodorovici explained that the absorption rate increased up to 33.4% from 8.5% when he took over the portfolio but noted that:

"Perhaps those who say that the increased rate is due to older projects are" illiterate "in this area, because I could just as well say that the same thing myself, that the major projects were prepared in 2005 and 2006 . Whatever happened to them from 2007 to 2011? They have stagnated. These are things that those who have nothing to say, just throw away theories. "

Asked to comment on the May 2013 statement, when he said that he aimed at an absorption rate of 50% at the end of 2013, Teodorovici explained that he reached 34% but that, unfortunately, the system still had problems.

"I strongly believe that the 50% can be reached. Unfortunately, the system still has problems. There are civil servants who do not understand that they must work for the citizens, they are still callous enough to do things the way they should not be done. If we had all pulled in the same direction, the 50% would have definitely been achieved. "
