    While in Bucharest on Wednesday, Luxembourg's Vice Prime-Minister and Foreign Minister Jacques Poos was received by President Constantinescu, held talks with the head of the Romanian Diplomacy Andrei Plesu and met the Romanian Defence and Culture ministers Victor Babiuc and Ion Caramitru. Mr Poos said that his country would continue advocating Romania's quick process of joining NATO because he thinks Romania is meeting the criteria required for joining the Alliance. Mr Poos added that the status of the countries that had not joined NATO in the first wave should be specified at the Alliance's meeting in Washington and that the ways taking to full joining should be clarified. Mr Poos said that there were no problems in the two countries' bilateral relations but that they had to find ways to intensify these relations especialy in trade sector. RADOR, February 25

    [02] Romanian diplomacy welcomes progresses in the Rambouillet negotiations

    The spokesman for the Romanian Foreign Ministry Carmen Podgoreanu said on Wednesday that "the Romanian diplomacy welcomes progresses in the Rambouillet negotiations. At the same time, Romania is encouraging Yugoslav authorities and ethnic Albanian leaders to continue efforts in view of getting a stable solution to the conflict, based on the proposals in the draft agreement. The Romanian Foreign Ministry says the new deadline is a chance that has not to be wasted. The final solutions are going to influence peace and stability not only in Kosovo but also in the whole East European region. Romania, who is going to hold presidency of the South-East European Cooperation starting this March, is very concerned in finding a stable negotiated solution to the Kosovo crisis. This is why Romania will back the efforts by the Contact Group, by NATO and EU and by the OSCE". RADOR, February 25
