The Minister of Transport, Sorin Grindeanu, said on Monday that TAROM will receive an aid of over 80 million euros from the European Commission, the signals in this regard being positive.
"Here we are talking about that plan accepted by the European Commission for the restructuring of TAROM. Just the other day I had a discussion with Mr. Bogdan Chiriţoiu from the Competition Council, there were colleagues of mine at the Commission last week, all the signals are positive that we will receive this aid from the European Commission for TAROM, substantial aid.
Based on this help, we will move forward with the receipt of this money. I think there are 80 or so million euros that we will receive. I hope we go along the assumed line, that of transforming this company into an economically sound company. The first step is to receive aid from the Commission which, this time, we have no reason not to receive, we meet all the criteria", stated Grindeanu, quoted by agerpres.ro.
