Romania aims at becoming a Schengen state by 2010, 3 years after joining the European Union, said Romanian interior minister Vasile Blaga in yesterday's meeting with a delegation of deputies from France. He assured the French deputies visiting Bucharest that the program to modernize borders was progressing in keeping with the terms set and there was no delay. Blaga also mentioned Romania would soon acquire one of the best border security systems, especially as effect of successful new negotiations on contract with Bechtel. (B.C.G.)
