President Klaus Iohannis declared on Tuesday, in the plenum of the European Parliament, that Romania's accession to the Euro zone as quickly as possible is a national fundamental objective. 

"For Romania, accession to Euro zone as quickly as possible, when all requirements will be met, is a national fundamental objective," the president said, during the debate regarding the future of the European Union. 

He also underlined the importance of Romania's accession to an area of free movement. 

"For Romania, the accession to the Schengen area represents an important objective. This demarche will significantly contribute to consolidating security for the entire free movement area in the Union," Iohannis pointed out.
