The Romanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MAE) hails the ratification of Romania's and Bulgaria's Accession Treaty to the EU by the Irish Senate.

The event marks the end of the parliamentary procedures of ratification of the two countries' Accession Treaty to the EU, with the Irish Chamber of Deputies having ratified the document on June 13, an MAE release says. MAE warmly thanked the Irish authorities for their active support given to Romania with a view to successfully conluding the process of accession to the Union in keeping with the schedule. Ireland's integration with the EU is an example, with this country's consistent support given to Romanian in its European route consolidating the prerequisites for an excellent cooperation between the two countries within the Union after Romania's accession on January 1, 2007, reads the MAE release.
