Summary/Abstract: This article aims to analyze how the financial interests of the European Union are protected within the national legal order through the means of criminal law. The safeguarding of Union resources is achieved by criminalizing a set of offenses that penalize the illegal obtaining and misappropriation of European funds under Section 4^1 of Law no. 78/2000 on the prevention, detection, and sanctioning of acts of corruption. The essential aspects of each offense against the financial interests of the European Union will be presented, while highlighting various issues that may arise in legal practice regarding the qualification of such acts and their overlapping with other offenses under the Criminal Code.
