irregularities

Romania reported to the European Commission in 2008 the highest number of irregularities or suspicions of fraud concerning pre-accession funds, and the European Union has to recover from the Romanian authorities EUR25.5 million following the problems it found.

Bucharest Mayor Sorin Oprescu on Friday presented his report on the city’s situation, saying he found several irregularities that, if it were not for his appointment as mayor, would have not been made public.
