Ministerial Mandate (2015-2016)
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e4/Dan_Stoenescu_and_Pope_Francis.jpg/220px-Dan_Stoenescu_and_Pope_Francis.jpg)
The mandate of the minister delegate brought many changes and innovations in terms of political and diplomatic measures and demarches in the relation of the Romanian government with the Romanian communities abroad. Amongst the first measures taken in the beginning of the mandate were transparency initiatives such as publication of the financed projects and the establishment of an online platform for projects.[25]
In the beginning of his mandate, Stoenescu announced a new direction for Romanian institutions in offering new business and investment opportunities using European funds for Romanians of the Diaspora who wish to return home.[26] Therefore, the Ministry of European Funds and the Department Policies for the Relation with Romanians Abroad launched, in October 2016, a 30 million euros program called "Diaspora Start-up", as part of the Human Capital Operational Program (POCU) 2014-2020.[27] The program offered a financing line for Diaspora Romanians that returned recently and intend to open a business in an urban area in Romania. It is a program exclusively for developing entrepreneurship and establishing new businesses.[28] Another innovative measure was the launching of the AgroDiaspora program meant to inform Romanians living abroad about the investment opportunities in the Romanian agriculture available through accessing European funds.[29] In order to develop entrepreneurial skills within the Diaspora, a new online program called "Worldwide Romanian Entrepreneurs" was launched offering hundreds of free scholarships.[30] To consolidate the cultural links between Romania and its kin ethnic groups in the near abroad, a series of demarches were started in order to establish Romanian Information Centers in Bălți (Republic of Moldova),[31]Ismail (Ukraine)[32] and Solotvyno (Ukraine).[33] The Romanian Information Centers in Bălți and Ismail, established by minister Stoenescu, were inaugurated in December 2016.[34] The center in Solotvyno (Slatina)[35] was opened in 2018 and the one in Korcea was inaugurated in 2019.[36]
Furthermore, a project called the Common Communication Space Romania – Republic of Moldova was initiated in order to support cooperation and convergence projects between press institutions, civil society and governmental institutions on a bilateral level. As part of this strategic project it was established the Romania – Republic of Moldova Mass media Consultative Council – a consultation forum for the civil society, management representatives of press institutions and journalists from both states to harmonize and integrate media laws and public policies in the area of mass media communication.[37]

During his mandate he always stressed the importance of implementing measures that fight against the artificial division of Romanian communities between Romanians and Moldovans,[38] Romanians and Vlachs,[39] Romanians and Aromanians.[40]
For a stronger common inter-institutional demarche in support of Romanian communities, the minister delegate always brought along during his visits abroad representatives of the Presidential Administration, the Commissions for Romanians Abroad in the Romanian Chamber of Deputies and the Senate of Romania as well as of other ministries.[38] The minister delegate was the first high-ranking official member of the Dacian Cioloș government to visit the Republic of Moldova[41] In early March 2016, the minister delegate went on a diplomatic mission to Malaysia as special envoy of President Klaus Iohannis and Prime Minister Dacian Cioloș to appeal to the Malaysian authorities to pardon and commute the capital punishment for the Romanian inmate Ionut Gologan.[42]
In the perspective of the 2016 Parliamentary elections, he launched together with the Electoral Permanent Authority a widespread campaign to inform Romanians living abroad about the legislative changes regarding the new possibility of voting by mail and organizing new voting sections in ones area of residence.[43]
Moreover, he initiated a legislative modification of Law no.321/2006 to ensure greater transparency on non-refundable financing for programs, projects and activities in support of Romanian communities living abroad.[44]
The Romanian media recognized the innovations brought by his mandate: "unlike the politicians that had Stoenescu's portfolio, his work was an enormous leap forward"[45]
The mandate of Ambassador in Tunis (2017-2021)

His mandate as Ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of Romania in the Republic of Tunisia contributed to the dynamization of the bilateral relations between Romania and Tunisia. Since 1963, bilateral relations are governed by a legal framework comprising more than 50 agreements. Numerous agreements have been negotiated and signed during his mandate, including an executive program in the field of health and medical sciences (2018); a cooperation agreement between the National Anticorruption Directorate (DNA) in Romania and the National Anticorruption Authority (INLUCC) in Tunisia; a cooperation agreement between Diplomatic institutes (2018); a cooperation agreement between UTICA (Tunisian Union of Industry, Trade and Handicrafts) and the Romanian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (2019); a Protocol of cooperation between the Government of Tunisia and the Government of Romania in the field of civil protection (2019); A Memorandum of Understanding was signed between the Independent High Authority for Elections of Tunisia and the Permanent Electoral Authority of Romania (2020).[46]

At the institutional level, he also established a close bilateral cooperation between INLUCC and Romanian institutions such as the National Anticorruption Directorate (DNA),[47] National Integrity Agency (ANI), and Crime Prevention Directorate of the Ministry of Justice.INLUCC.[48] Also, during his mandate, a strong partnership was established between the National Civil Protection Office of Tunisia and the Department for Emergency Situations of Romania,[49] between the courts of Auditors of the two countries, between national radio stations and there are also many other examples…[50]

In the context of the Libyan civil war, he coordinated, on the Tunisian side, several repatriation operations of Romanian citizens from the war zone.[63] In order to strengthen decentralized bilateral cooperation, he supported the development of cooperation between municipalities in Romania and Tunisia: Tunis-Timișoara,[64] Tunis-Arad, Djerba Midoun-Bușteni,[65] Petriș-Takrouna,[66] Iași-Ariana.[67] Despite the difficult economic situation, economic relations have become more dynamic under his mandate. Thus, Romania has become the 13th trading partner and the 11th supplier for Tunisia.
The main products exported are: cereals (32%), oil and oil derivates (25%), cars and electric appliances (13%), iron and steel, wood and wood products, inorganic chemicals boilers, motors and other mechanical appliances.[46] Also, many other numerous meetings and economic events were organized to promote Romania together with the Chambers of Commerce and Industry of Tunis, Sfax,[68] Sousse,[69] Bizerte,[70] Beja.

Another concrete example is the presence of Romanian companies on the Tunisian market and the inauguration in 2017 of water drilling works in Oued Retem CI02 site (17 km after Nafta, Tozeur governorate), in the south of Tunisia, a project developed by the Romanian company “Drillstone”.[72] Tunisian investments in Romania also included 25 million Euros, invested in the “ORADEA” project in the car cable sector (Câbleries Chakira).[46] When the pandemicCOVID-19 began, at the beginning of 2020, he coordinated the repatriation of Romanian citizens.[73] In addition, and in order to support the Romanian citizens in the pandemic context, the Embassy of Romania in Tunis created a network and made available the contact details of some pharmacists,[74] Romanian doctors and Tunisian doctors who speak Romanian.[75] Culturally and academically, his mandate was marked by the establishment, for the first time, of new Romanian institutions in Tunisia such as the Center for Culture and Science of Romania in Tunisia (2018)[76] and the Romanian Lectorate in the Bourguiba Institute for Modern Languages (2020).[77]
