The Romanian europarliamentarian, Titus Corlatean, considers that the possible adhesion of Moldova to the European Union (EU) is an impetus for the democratic opposition from the country to go on struggling to establish democratic legislative and institutional structures. The europarliamentarian inserts this position into a statement related to the Brok report on "the strategy document of the European Commission on expansion," Info-Prim Neo quotes a communique of the European official. The statement shows "the perspective of adhesion of some South-East European countries to the EU is the engine of the reforms on the way of the democratic transformation of those states. The strategy document of the European Commission on expansion in 2007 should have conveyed an unequivocal signal regarding the firm commitment for the countries with which the joining talks have been started and for the countries having perspectives to join." "Inter alia, it is the case of Serbia and Moldova. For the latter one, Romania is a window through which the Moldovan citizens can keep their hope for a European future, more democratic and more prosperous," explains Titus Corlatean, a member of the European Parliament's Delegation for Relations with Moldova. According to the europarliamentarian, "the future adhesion to the EU is an impetus for the Moldovan democratic opposition to continue struggling to establish democratic legislative and institutional structures, a process that the EU should encourage". "The need for internal and institutional reforms within the EU, by the Lisbon Treaty entering force, cannot be an a priori motive and a pretext to block the EU's expansion," Corlatean said.
