Usr Senator of Diaspora Radu Mihail argues that the European Union states must ensure a better coordination of social systems, so as to ensure equal rights in matters of work.

The argument was presented at a new meeting under the aegis of the Conference on the Future of Europe, which was attended by delegates of national parliaments, as well as MEPs from the European Parliament. The broad debate, which started from the recommendations of the citizens to determine the future of the European path, took place in the middle of this week. On this occasion, based on the synthesis of the panels, Radu Mihail, as a representative of the Romanian Parliament, launched a series of proposals regarding mobile citizens in Europe:Radu Mihail: "First of all, there is a need for a better coordination of social systems in the EU, so that we can ensure equal rights in terms of work. Secondly, we must aim to boost the economy by stimulating innovation and a high level of technology in emerging European countries and facilitating the contribution of mobile citizens to the development of their countries of origin, in order to stop the current 'brain drain'. The mobility of knowledge and entrepreneurship can help expand Europe's technological progress and innovation capacities, but it must not leave countries like Romania without the essential human resource (entrepreneurs, experts, etc.)." At the same time, Senator Radu Mihail stressed that it is necessary for european mobile citizens to be able to vote in European, national or local elections where they are for candidates from their countries of origin or possibly for those from host countries, where this right is applicable. At the end, Senator Radu Mihail proposed the inclusion of mobile citizens as a distinct category in any consultation process that will follow the Conference.Radu Mihail: "I insisted with the other participants in the debate to look at all the elements of discussion within the conference and in the light of the needs and aspirations of the mobile citizens that they represent in one way or another. Because European integration also goes through the millions of Europeans who live and work outside their home country."
