The Romanian government states that Ilie Bolojan and Oana Țoiu requested the European Commission expedite the review of the “Fritz amendment,” contrary to suggestions they proposed cuts to PNRR funds. This clarification comes amid concerns raised both within Europe and Romania regarding the new anti-corruption law's adherence to European legal principles. The government insists it is actively working to ensure Romania receives its full allocation of €770 million linked to the PNRR milestone concerning the new integrity legislation. The dispute centers on the interpretation of communications with the EU regarding the amendment. Officials deny offering any “suggestions for cuts” to the funds. The government aims to proactively address concerns and secure the full disbursement of PNRR resources. The situation highlights ongoing scrutiny of Romania’s anti-corruption efforts and their alignment with EU standards.
