 IMPORT AND EXPORT PROHIBITIONS. November 8. 1927. January 30. 1928. 2493 (c) ad No.2. The High Contracting Parties declare that, by accepting in the case of Roumania, in considera- tion of her exceptional situation of fact and of law, the reserva- tion concerning crude oil in ac- cordance with Article 6, para- graph 2, they have not in any way agreed to measures of pro- hibition or restriction for this product, which they regard as being of very great importance for the world market. The High Contracting Parties feel confi- dent that, as soon as circum- stances allow her to do so, Rou- mania herself, acting in the spirit of the preceding paragraph (b) above, will abolish this prohibi- tion, and, in the meantime, that she will take into account the interests of the neighbouring con- tracting countries. The Roumanian Delegation fully associates itself with this declarh.tion. (d) ad No.4. (i) Scope oj the Pro'lYisWn.
