Prime Minister Viorica Dancila, who is paying a visit to Brussels, met on Wednesday with co-chairs of the European Parliament's Greens-European Free Alliance (Greens-EFA) Franziska Maria Keller and Philippe Lamberts, whom she presented the political situation of Romania and the reform programme initiated by the Government.

Prime Minister Theresa May has warned that European citizens arriving in Britain after Brexit next year may lose some rights, setting up a clash with the European Union over their treatment during any transition period.

While senior EU lawmakers are warning that the Catalan crisis poses a bigger threat to the European Union than Brexit, Kristian Steinnes, Professor of modern European history with the Department of historical studies at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, does not see it as a potential danger to the EU.

“Political grandstanding” that equates refugees with terrorists only foments the hatred and disillusion that inspires those who join terrorist groups, argued many MEPs in Wednesday’s debate.

Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic met Friday with a delegation of MEPs from the Greens–European Free Alliance group in the European Parliament.

The group was led by Philippe Lamberts, co-chairman of that political group.
