The document is intended to facilitate legal and judicial cooperation between France and Romania, as set forth by several bilateral conventions in various fields and represents the first joint declaration of intent between the Romanian and the French Public Prosecutor’s Offices, setting a milestone in the development of Romanian-French judicial cooperation, based on the tradition of common judicial culture,” the release states.
