„5,1 milioane de salariați ar trebui să muncească degeaba un an”. Consilierul lui Isărescu, despre „nevoia de finanțare a statului”

Eugen Rădulescu, advisor to BNR's governor, claims Romania needs 60 billion euros for state financing in one year. He argues that this amount means 5.1 million employees would have to work for free all year to cover the net financing need. Rădulescu emphasizes that this figure does not include borrowing to roll over old debts. He highlights the alarming budget deficit of 9.3% of GDP for 2024, suggesting that the state is overspending significantly. His previous controversial comments about the economy led to BNR distancing itself from his views, clarifying they do not represent official positions.
