PM Adrian Nastase briefed the North-Atlantic Council on the Romanian Military restructuring and reform project, which the authorities in Bucharest are planning to conduct in order to become a NATO member. The project entails cutting down the number of generals to one quarter of what it is now.
The reform process in the military will generate a cutback of 306 General positions over the next two years, of the current 446, and the dismissal of 4,000 officers by December 2001, PM Adrian Nastase said in Brussels on Monday night. Mediafax
