    Șanse de dezvoltare pentru orașul Babadag

    Proiectele
    europene sunt principala şansă de dezvoltare pentru oraşele mici. O spun chiar
    unii dintre edili. Ei admit că fondurile de la bugetul local abia ajung pentru
    cheltuielile curente iar de investiţii, de multe ori, nici nu poate fi vorba.


    În această
    situaţie, unii edili au decis să profite de şansă şi să depună proiecte pentru
    a obţine finanţare europeană. Este şi
    cazul oraşului Babadag.


    Acolo, sunt
    în diverse stadii de implementare, proiecte europene în valoare totală de peste
    13 milioane de euro. Iar pentru alte proiecte se aşteaptă semnarea
    contractelor.


    Primarul Georgian
    Caraman: În derulare sunt vreo 4. Care am semnat contractele sunt
    alte 4. Dar sunt etape. Şi am foarte multe care aştept să semnez contractele de
    finanţare. Marea majoritate sunt cu cofinanţări mici, în afară de blocurile
    care se izolează. Acolo e undeva 60% de la Uniunea Europeană – 40 din partea
    noastră, restul sunt cu o cofinanţare de 2%. E foarte bine, vă daţi seama.




    Unul dintre
    proiectele europene din Babadag este pe mobilitate urbană. Chiar dacă este un oraş mic, Babadagul
    încearcă să ţină pasul cu noile tendinţe şi să aibă un transport în comun care
    să polueze cât mai puţin.




    Un proiect îl am de 5
    milioane de euro, de mobilitate urbană, de înfiinţare transport public cu 3
    autobuze electrice, cu piste, cu park and ride, cu încărcări electrice. E
    destul de complex şi destul de mare. Deci, nu l-aş fi făcut niciodată din
    bugetul local pentru că nu avem de unde atâţia bani. Contractul l-am semnat,
    aştept următoarea etapă.




    Edilul spune că înfiinţarea unui
    serviciu de transport public este necesară şi va fi de un real folos mai ales
    pentru vârstnici:




    E necesitate. Populaţia
    este destul de îmbătrânită. Şi e nevoie, din zonele limitrofe să ajungă în zona
    centrală sunt cam 5 kilometri de la un capăt la altul. Acum, chiar dacă oraşul
    Babadag e mai mic aşa, încercăm şi noi să fim la standardele europene şi căutăm
    să fie mai econom, să nu mai poluăm.




    Specialiştii
    spun că autobuzele electrice au mai multe avantaje, comparativ cu cele
    alimentate cu benzină sau motorină. Un grad la mic de poluare a aerului dar şi
    o reducere a poluării fonice, sunt două dintre ele. Un alt avantaj ar fi
    costurile mai mici de exploatare.


    Un studiu făcut la nivel european arată
    că majoritatea cetăţenilor, sunt dispuşi să facă unele compromisuri pentru a
    contribui la reducerea emisiilor de carbon.


    Pe lista compromisurilor figurează şi
    renunţarea la maşina personală, în favoarea transportului în comun.

    Rumänien meldet 333 bestätigte Neu-Infektionen mit dem neuen Coronavirus, landesweit steigt die Zahl der Infektionen auf 6.633. 914 Menschen wurden geheilt und aus Krankenhäusern entlassen. 213 Patienten befinden sich auf den Intensivstationen, während weitere 318 Menschen gestorben sind. 47 rumänische Staatsbürger sind im Ausland an Coronavirus gestorben. Die Behörden gehen davon aus, dass die Pandemie in der folgenden Zeit ihren Höhepunkt erreichen wird. Darüber hinaus beschloss der Gesundheitsminister Nelu Tataru gemeinsam mit Verteidigungsminister Nicolae Ciuca, dass medizinisches Personal der Armee die Leitung des Krankenhauses im südrumänischen Focsani übernimmt, nachdem 15 Mitarbeiter mit dem neuen Coronavirus infiziert worden sind.



    Rumänische Soldaten und ihre US-Kollegen nehmen an einer gemeinsamen Übung im südrumänischen Babadag teil, teilt das Verteidigungsministerium in Bukarest mit. Die Übung wird einen Luftangriff auf ein Bodenziel sowie eine Operation zur Bergung eines abgeschossenen Flugzeugs simulieren. Nach Angaben des Verteidigungsministeriums werden alle Maßnahmen zur Begrenzung des Coronavirus-Ausbruchs während der Übung strikt eingehalten.



    Die Regierung in Bukarest wird voraussichtlich diese Woche entscheiden, welche Kategorien von Staatsbediensteten von der Kurzarbeit betroffen sein werden. Nach einem von Premierminister Ludovic Orban erwähnten Szenario werden einige Staatsbedienstete nur 75% ihrer Gehälter erhalten. Es wird auch erwartet, dass die Regierung in diesem Jahr die erste Haushaltsanpassung neu analysieren wird. Die Ministerien für Gesundheit und Arbeit werden die ersten sein, die aufgrund der Coronavirus-Pandemie mehr Mittel erhalten werden. Mehr Geld wird in die Krankenkassen und den Kauf der notwendigen medizinischen Ausrüstung fließen. Die rumänische Wirtschaft ist bereits um 30 bis 40
    Prozent geschrumpft, sagte Wirtschaftsminister Virgil Popescu am Montag. Er
    fügte hinzu, dass es von der europäischen Wirtschaft abhänge und dass es
    ziemlich viel Trägheit geben werde, bis sie die Lage vor der Krise erreiche.



    Orthodoxe Christen, die in Rumänien die Mehrheit bilden sowie griechisch-katholische Christen befinden sich in der Karwoche. Aufgrund der Quarantänemaßnahmen werden die Gläubigen die Gottesdienste live mitverfolgen können. Katholiken und Protestanten verbrachten gestern Ostern mit leeren Kirchen und Gottesdiensten, die von verschiedenen Fernseh- oder Online-Kanälen übertragen wurden. Besuche bei Verwandten und Freunden waren verboten. In seiner traditionellen Osterbotschaft aus dem Vatikan sagte Papst Franziskus, es sei jetzt keine Zeit für Uneinigkeit, Spaltungen und Nachlässigkeit.



    Nach
    jüngsten Angaben sind weltweit über 1.850.000 Menschen mit dem neuen
    Coronavirus infiziert. Nahezu 116.000
    von ihnen sind gestorben, während mehr als 440.000 geheilt wurden. Die USA
    stehen mit 550.000 Infizierten und 22.000 Toten an erster Stelle. Am stärksten
    betroffen ist der Bundesstaat New York, die Zahl der Infektionen steigt somit auf 188.000. In
    Europa verzichten einige der am stärksten von der Pandemie betroffenen Länder,
    wie Spanien und Italien, auf einige Quarantänemaßnahmen, nachdem die Zahl der
    Infektionen rückläufig war. Die Regierungen in Rom und Madrid ergreifen
    Massnahmen zur schrittweisen Wiederbelebung ihrer Wirtschaft. Spanien hat
    beschlossen, die Aktivitäten in einigen Fertigungsindustrien und im Baugewerbe
    wieder aufzunehmen, während die italienischen Behörden die Wiederaufnahme
    einiger Unternehmen erlauben werden. In beiden Ländern bleiben jedoch strenge
    Sicherheitsmaßnahmen in verschiedenen Unternehmen in Kraft, um die Anzahl der
    Infektionen zu begrenzen. Die spanischen Behörden werden Millionen von Masken
    an die Arbeitnehmer verteilen. Andererseits meldete China, wo das neue
    Coronavirus erstmals im Dezember gemeldet wurde, 108 neue Infektionsfälle – die
    höchste tägliche Zahl nach mehr als fünf Wochen. Die meisten neuen Fälle sind
    bei chinesischen Staatsbürgern registriert, die aus dem Ausland zurückgekehrt
    sind, und fast die Hälfte von ihnen wurde in einer Provinz an der Grenze zu
    Russland bestätigt.



    Warmes Wetter in Rumänien, die Höchstwerte erreichen 25 Grad. In der Gebirgsregion regnet es vereinzelt. In Bukarest wurden am Mittag 15 Grad gemessen.
