Summary/Abstract: A member state of the European Union since 2007, Romania is bound to implement in its in domestic legislation many of the provisions of the Acquis Communautaire, including those of the Framework-Decision no. 2002/584/JHA of the Council of the European Union, dated June 13, 2002 on the European arrest warrant and the surrender procedures between Member States. This is a tool for judicial cooperation in criminal matters which enables the Members States to provide assistance to one another in a rapid manner based on the principle of mutual trust, which should apply within the European Union. As it is normal in a democratic state, the national provisions covered by exceptions for non-compliance with the Constitution invoked before the Constitutional Court of Romania, but they have always passed the test of compliance with the Fundamental Law.
