In this context, in order to meet medium and long-term electricity demand at affordable prices for consumers, in conditions of quality, safety supply and respect for the principles of sustainable development, Romania needs to put in place new, competitive energy capacities with the use of clean technologies to cover the capacity deficit that emerged after 2015, with clear downward trends after The importance of developing nuclear energy to ensure Romania's energy security is also highlighted by the results of the modeling study used in the elaboration of the "Energy Strategy of Romania , with the perspective of 2050", which positively positions nuclear energy both in terms of contribution to ensure energy security (stable long-term electricity production, capitalization of internal material / energy resources, competitive price for consumers), and to achieve the EU's greenhouse gas emission reduction targets. 93

94 Also, an important concern is to attract the capital of private investors, specialized in the field and interested in investing in the Romanian energy sector. In this sense, "Green / Brown Field" type projects are already underway, through the establishment of IEP (Independent Energy Producer) companies, having in kind contributions of companies and national companies and cash contribution of potential investors. 94

155 PROGRAMS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF INFRASTRUCTURE IN TOURISM 155

156 156

157 The tourism has a significant financial contribution to the Romanian economy and creates an important number of jobs. Actually, the tourism became the strongest branch of the economy at world level. Elements of the collective tourism date back in the XV century, when spa tourism emerged in Băile Felix, Lipova etc. Currently, the Romanian tourism focuses more on spectacular landscapes, history and national traditions. Crossed by the Danube River, Romania benefits from an unique landscape diversity, including Carpathian Mountains, Black Sea Shore and the Danube Delta, the biggest delta in Europe, very well conserved. The potential of these resources is not sufficiently exploited. From these reasons, it is necessary to promote an integrated strategy to develop the tourism and to design viable investment programmers based on Romanian capital and European funds. 157

177 PROGRAM FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF INDUSTRY 177

178 178

179 The strategic goal of Romania is to implement a model of industrial policy that generates an intelligent economic growth by moving from a model based on industries that perform a basic manufacturing of raw materials by using low skilled labor force towards a model that is based on innovative, competitive and environmentally friendly industries. In this context, the industrialization of the economy is deemed to be done as a central element. The industrialization must be done by specializing in high technological intensity, in competitiveness clusters, which will diminish the dependency on imports and will increase the exports of industrial goods. 179

188 188

189 The problem of health care for the population is one of the major problems of governments worldwide.

The Romanian health system is based on the principles of universal access to quality health care and therefore suppose the application of the principle of solidarity in financing. As well, trust must be restored to citizens about the health system by a civilized access to the medical services, and also restore the dignity of medical staff. 189
