LEGAL – The Romanian government passed a new Administration code of law by emergency ordinance, claiming it imposes mechanisms that prevent institutional deadlock and simplifies regulations in public administration. The law also establishes procedures and deadlines for appointing government cabinet members in case of reshuffling or voiding of the position. The Presidency and the opposition have meted out criticism at the initiative.



BRUSSELS – Romanian Defense Minister Gabriel Les takes part between June 25- 27 in Brussels in a series of official activities, such as the meeting of his NATO member state counterparts, the global anti-ISIS coalition. Minister Les also meets his counterparts from Georgia and France. On Tuesday, he attended the celebration occasioned by the 15th anniversary of the European Defense Agency, where he emphasized the excellent relationship that the agency had with the Romanian rotating presidency of the Council of the EU. The defense agency was set up in 2004 in Brussels as a joint government agency of the Council of the EU. The agency brings together all EU member states except Denmark.



LONDON — Romanian tennis player, the world’s number seven Simona Halep has got through to the round 16 of the WTA tennis tournament in Eastbourne, Great Britain, an event with nearly one million dollars up for grabs.
