Romania joins the member states of the European Union that support Spain's efforts to obtain official recognition of regional languages, namely Catalan, Basque, and Galician, as official EU languages. This initiative has also been supported by other countries, such as Belgium, Ireland, Portugal, and Slovenia, each expressing their support to varying degrees.


Additionally, Croatia has stated that it will not oppose this measure, provided that the competent services of the EU Council consider Spain's request justified. This proposal aims to promote linguistic diversity within the European Union and recognize the cultural identities of Spanish regions. The Hina agency reported on these developments, highlighting the importance of international support for regional languages.
