"Foreign banks have liquidated deposits of EUR 1.7 billion in four months, from December to April, we read in Ziarul Financiar.

A rapid and chaotic reduction of exposure in Romania of banks in the euro area is one of the BNR'S fears.

It is desirable that this phenomenon occurs more slowly.

The only positive aspect of reducing exposure to foreign banks would be the reduction of the foreign debt, writes the same newspaper.

All due to problems in the euro area, "the crisis gives us signs of return to the auto industry", writes Jurnalul Naţional.

The decrease in orders determined Dacia, the largest exporting country to end its activity for three days.

And neither factories that produce parts and tires are in a good situation. It seems to repeat the scenario of 2008 when premiums were observed slowdown for the purchase of cars.

Hope for the Romanian automotive sector is now in Craiova, where Ford will start production model B-Max.

Weather warming, brings together with lack of plant pest, we read in Evenimentul Zilei:

Find out about the doctor's advice and how we protect ourselves effectively.

In Adevărul we find a guide to the use of electronic medical records, indicates that would replace the classical recipe on 1 July.

"The ordeal of paperwork from doctors and deciphering impossible handwriting’s doctor" will no longer exist. We read about the patient's F.I.S.C., a proposal that will reduce fraud in the system.

"Where public money is going down the drain."

România Liberă we have list of 78 local and county councilors that are guilty of conflict of interest or incompatibility, or are suspected of corruption.

The total amount that has come from the budgets of local firms to advisers is 8.5 million.

In Evenimentul Zilei we learn that "Bulgarians will still a bridge at Rousse.

From one in a few years we could have five bridges over the Danube in Bulgaria.

The Calafat-Vidin could be completed this year.

It would follow other links to Călăraşi and Bechet and a new bridge at Ruse.

ICR scandal in Adevărul : "the war papionului. Ponta against Creationism. "

To land on "Băsescu’s intellectuals", the Government passed the USL from Presidency to Parliament.

A blunder committed out of politics revenge, considers Adevărul .

"Cleaning from ICR-shock wave passes the border", writes also România Liberă.

Emergency Ordinance for "depoliticization " is considered as "a brutal practice, worrying".

The reactions of the people of Romanian culture arrived in the international press. In his defense, România Liberă Patapiecivici tells us what ICR did in the last seven years .
