Glavna lekcija koju i EU i Makedonija uče iz pristupanja Rumunije je da se reforme i antikorupcione mjere moraju načiniti nepovratnima prije pridruživanja EU -- a ne nakon toga, kad politička volja opada, izjavila je bivša ministrica pravde Rumunije Monica Macovei u intervjuu za Southeast European Times.
The main lesson both the EU and Macedonia are learning from Romania's accession is that reforms and anti-corruption measures have to be made irreversible before joining the EU -- not afterwards, when the political will decreases, former Romanian Justice minister Monica Macovei said in an interview for Southeast European Times.
