Look Enki
these people misunderstood European Union
They though because they European in European Union, they somehow have a birth-right to live like Germans
they don't
for living like Germans you must live in Germany, have German skill, German work ethic, be integrated in German economy
Otherwise, whether in Romania or Portugal or Greece or Ireland, you live as you lived B4 union
yes, there will be tumult .. (Hallo Endo) Germans Nazi, Hitler , war reparation and and and many other rubbish
but
when all said and done
Romania & co. are on their own
Angela can not do a thing

Re: Romania
The "fall" of the Romanian Government hardly deserves a new thread and Newsday is wrong to declare it a collapse because it's actually a tactical maneuver on the part of the ruling coalition. We had about two weeks of small-scale street protests (couple of hundred people per city), which ended with the arrival of the snow and the cold. The coalition took advantage of the respite to replace the Cabinet in order to avoid giving the impression that it was done under the pressure of street protests. The move was discussed in advance with the representatives of the IMF, EC and WB, who left Romania on Saturday. I doubt that the protesters will be appeased by the departure of Emil Boc, but this remains to be seen.

Strangely enough, the Romanian Government has decided to stick to its target of joining the Euro Zone by 2015 or something. I don't understand why we should join the Euro Zone under the circumstances. I don't understand why the Government thinks they would have us.

Iranians like Jewish people .. most are Mensch
.
Mensch (Yiddish: מענטש mentsh, from German: Mensch "human being") means "a person of integrity and honor". The opposite of a "mensch" is an "unmensch" (meaning: an utterly unlikeable or unfriendly person). According to Leo Rosten, the Yiddish maven and author of The Joys of Yiddish, "mensch" is "someone to admire and emulate, someone of noble character. The key to being 'a real mensch' is nothing less than character, rectitude, dignity, a sense of what is right, responsible, decorous." The term is used as a high compliment, expressing the rarity and value of that individual's qualities.
In Yiddish, from which the word has migrated as a loanword into American English, mensch roughly means "a good person." A mensch is a particularly good person, like "a stand-up guy", a person with the qualities one would hope for in a dear friend or trusted colleague. Mentschlekhkeyt (Yiddish מענטשלעכקייט, German Menschlichkeit) are the properties which make one a mensch.
During the Age of Enlightenment in Germany the term Humanität, in the philosophical sense of compassion, was used to describe what characterizes a "better human being" in Humanism. The concept goes back to Cicero's Humanitas and was literally translated into the German word Menschlichkeit and then adapted into mentsh in Yiddish language use.

¶ WHEN Dr. Raed Arafat resigned last month as under secretary of state at Romania’s Ministry of Health, thousands took to the streets across the country to demand his return. The demonstrations turned violent as protesters set fires and threw paving stones and the police responded with tear gas and water cannons.
¶ That it was not the usual reaction, here or anywhere else, to the departure of a government official is a reflection on Dr. Arafat, a Palestinian by birth, who is no ordinary federal employee. He was one of the founders of the country’s widely lauded emergency-response system, and the reason for his departure from the ministry was as public as it was ugly.

A lot of African/Muslim young men come to Romania to study medicine. This was especially true "back then" (before 1990). I know of an Iranian doctor in Vaslui, a small town in Moldova.

In Iran, people even do not move from one city to other
people who live in Isfahan, they Ispahani since generation, with their distinct dialect, mentality, mindset and culture .. they would never move to another city

probably 3,000,000+ Iranians live "everywhere" in the world .. literally everywhere

Re: Romania
Romania joins big gas league
By Robert M Cutler
MONTREAL - With potential ramifications for the entire Euro-Caspian energy complex from Central Asia to Central Europe, a new natural gas strike has been made in Romania's offshore sector of the Black Sea. This find will re-jig calculations around the European Union's Southern Gas Corridor while providing potential new sources of energy for East Central and especially Southeastern Europe.
In that context, the potential for Romania to become a natural gas exporter to Southeastern and even East Central Europe comes into focus. The significance of the Romanian strike concerns the eventual choice by the consortium developing Azerbaijan's offshore Shah Deniz natural gas deposit, between the "western" (through Greece to Italy) route for its 10 billion cubic meters per year (bcm/y) gas and the "northern" (through Bulgaria to Southeastern Europe) route.
Romanian President Traian Basescu announced last week that a consortium comprising the US major ExxonMobil and the Romanian company Petrom (a subsidiary of the Austrian OMV) has struck over 100 bcm of gas in Romania's first deep-water offshore exploration. He said this figure was subject to revision upwards, since there were five other geological formations in the area with characteristics similar to the successful find. If they all proved out the same way, the result would give Romania over a half a trillion cubic meters of offshore natural gas - equivalent to 25-30 years of total Romanian gas consumption at the present rate, or 75-90 years worth of its gas imports.
Separately in Bulgaria a week ago it was announced that, in conformance with a February 2011 decision by the EU's European Council that every EU member state should have at least two sources of natural gas and electricity, the Bulgarian company Bulgartransgaz will cooperate to build the transborder Interconnector Bulgaria-Romania (IBR). Bulgaria imports most of its gas from Russia, which cut off supplies for three weeks in January 2009 and is thought to be maneuvering within the Bulgarian political environment to maintain its hegemonic position in the Bulgarian gas market.
Thus while according to the Bulgarian press agency Novinite the US company Chevron will soon start drilling for shale gas in the northeastern Romania around Barlad, the Bulgarian cabinet recently made it impossible for Chevron to develop shale gas in Bulgaria by revoking an earlier awarded permit for hydraulic fracturing ("fracking"). Bulgarian environmental activists are now seeking legislation to make that ban permanent.
In response, an organization called Movement for Energy Independence (DEN) has formed in Bulgaria calling for the fracking moratorium to be cancelled and for the until now dilatory work on all interconnectors to be accelerated, including the ITB, the IBR, and also the Interconnector Greece-Bulgaria (IGB).
DEN also criticizes the current government for enforcing Bulgaria's gas dependence upon Russia by favoring the Moscow-based South Stream gas pipeline project (Moscow to Bulgaria under the Black Sea) and seeking to help exempt Gazprom from oncoming EU antitrust rules by accelerating the pipeline's timetable.
The IBR, on the other hand, if constructed to be bidirectionally reversible, would make it possible not only for Bulgaria to import Romanian gas directly from Romania, but also to transit to Romania the gas that Bulgaria might receive from Azerbaijan's offshore Shah Deniz deposit via Georgia, Turkey, and the Interconnector Turkey-Bulgaria (ITB) still under construction.
An Interconnector Turkey-Greece (ITG) is already operating, but the Shah Deniz consortium has ruled out its extension into the Interconnector Turkey-Greece-Italy (ITGI) to Southern Europe via the Interconnector Greece-Italy (IGI) across Greece and under the Ionian Sea to Italy's geographical boot. (The undersea segment by itself is called the Poseidon pipeline.)
However, this does not mean that the Shah Deniz consortium has ruled out either the ITG or the separate Interconnector Turkey-Bulgaria (ITB), should it choose a northern rather than a western route for its gas. Given the newly announced interconnector between Bulgaria and Romania, either the ITG-IGB duo or the ITB by itself would be able to hook up into Romanian national pipeline system via the IBR.
The Shah Deniz consortium has yet to choose between the BP-proposed South East European Pipeline (SEEP) or a reconfiguration of the Nabucco pipeline project for the possible northern route. After choosing one of those, it will then choose between it and the designated western-route pipeline, the Trans-Adriatic Pipeline (TAP), which is set to cross Greece, Albania, and go underneath the Adriatic Sea to Italy's boot.
Indeed, earlier this week, the Bulgarian cabinet approved the agreement between the Bulgarian company Nabucco Gas Pipeline Bulgaria and the international consortium Nabucco Gas Pipeline International, signed in June 2011. The next step is for the Bulgarian Parliament to ratify the contract, following which the stages for implementation of the Nabucco project in Bulgaria may be further specified.
However, none of this means that the ITGI or the IGI is dead. As a consequence of the debt crisis in Greece, the Greek principal in the IGI consortium, the public gas company DEPA, is a candidate for privatization; and Russia's Gazprom has shown an interest.
The possibility of the IGI segment transiting gas later in the decade from Moscow's South Stream natural gas pipeline has been discussed in the Greek press now for some time. Sourcing problems, however, continue to plague the South Stream project; Russia has never said where any of its gas will come from.
