Romania should focus on measures improving the celerity of high-level corruption trials and strengthening general anti-corruption policy until the European Commission's next assessment, according to the EC's interim report on Romania's progress under the Cooperation and Verification Mechanism.

"Until the Commission's next assessment in summer 2011, Romania should focus in particular on the launch of an independent review of the judicial system, the reform of the disciplinary system for magistrates and on measures improving the celerity of high-level corruption trials and strengthening general anti-corruption policy," reads the report released Friday.

The EC said that, since its last assessment, the country responded in a constructive way to the recommendations made by the Commission.
