CSAT: Romanian institutions have duly enforced UN, EU international sanctions

The Supreme Council for National Defence (CSAT) looked at and approved on Tuesday the Report on the measures taken by Romania towards the enforcement of international sanction regimes (October 2016 - September 2017).

"The Council found that during the reference period Romanian institutions have implemented the sanctions adopted by the United Nations and the European Union, applicable at national level through the framework law and sectoral regulations," informs a release of the Presidential Administration. 

According to the cited source, the Interinstitutional Council on the Implementation of International Sanctions has organized in this interval several meetings to analyze the provisions of the sanction regimes, beginning with travel restrictions and the freezing of funds and economic resources, and continuing with a ban on the sale, supply, transfer or export, to the states concerned, of military products and related services. 

CSAT members were also informed about the stage of the enforcement of the Action Plan for the implementation of the decisions of the NATO Summit in Warsaw. 

Another point on the agenda was the analysis and approval of the National Intelligence Priorities Plan for 2018, which is the main planning document for activities in the field. 

The Presidential Administration points out that this is the result of the prospective analysis conducted by the analytical structure of the National Intelligence Community in co-operation with the entities legally entitled to receive information for deciding on national intelligence priorities identified on the basis of the assessment of threats, risks and vulnerabilities of national security, and of opportunities to promote national interests.
