The Minister of Agriculture, Florin Barbu, accuses former Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan of having interests in awarding contracts to Spain that Romania had with Algeria for sheep and goat exports. This comes after the European Commission extended a ban on exports due to a new infection outbreak. Barbu suggests that the lack of action from Bolojan's government could lead to compensation claims from third countries. He believes that exports could resume soon for countries accepting vaccinated animals. Barbu emphasizes the importance of contesting the EU's decision and highlights Romania's significant share in the EU sheep meat market.
