Pirelli plant în Slatina is an example of the good co-operation between Romania and Italy, Ciolos says

The Pirelli plant in southern Slatina is an example of the good co-operation between Romania and Italy in economic field, on Friday said Prime Minister Dacian Ciolos. 

"Italy is not only an opportunity for the Romanians who have chosen to work there, at least temporarily, but there - Italy is investing in Romania, creating jobs for the Romanians, here, at home. So, Italy is not only a very important commercial partner to Romania, but also an economic investment partner," said Ciolos upon a visit to the southern Slatina-based Pirelli plant. 

He specified that the Pirelli investment in Slatina reveals that the economic and investments environment of Romania evolved a lot. 

"(...) the economic and investments environment becomes more attractive not only for greenfield investments, but also for developing such investments. The fact that Pirelli is already during its fourth development and investments stage shows that the Romanian economic milieu is enough attractive not only from the cost, the workforce point of view, but also from the viewpoint of its quality, that has improved lately, and also from the legislative and economic predictability's point of view, since the economic growth perspectives attract more investors to Romania," stressed Ciolos. 

The Prime Minister is accompanied in his visit to the Pirelli plant by the Public Finances Minister, Anca Dragu and the Labour Minister, Dragos Pislaru.
