The Romanian government cites the data of a recent Eurobarometer which tells us that three quarters of Romanians are optimistic about the future of the European Union, the figure being very high, much higher than in other states within the union.
"Romania's future cannot be other than pro-European. Today, on the National Youth Day, we received the most beautiful confirmation and I am extremely happy to learn from the latest Eurobarometer that most young Romanians understand and feel the benefits they enjoy as European citizens.
Three quarters of young Romanians are optimistic about the future of the European Union and show greater openness and support for European policies than other age groups. The vast majority of them – 74% – are satisfied with the life they lead, and more than 60% of them appreciate that things are moving in the right direction in their personal lives.
The fact that 70% of young people are satisfied with their jobs prompts us, those who govern today, to continue and develop public policies that encourage young generations to stay and develop their careers and businesses in Romania.
The education system, the economic situation, unemployment, housing, the environment and climate change are priorities of our young people, therefore also of us.
Using the enormous opportunity of the 80 billion euros - European money that will raise the standards of public services and increase opportunities for the development of the entrepreneurial environment - turns out to be, under these conditions, a commitment that the public administration, the Executive, must fulfill in order not to disappoint the young generation, for whom we are already implementing the framework of a better future, at home, in European Romania, which supports Euro-Atlantic values."
