Prime Minister Luca Niculescu hinted at a potential tax increase in 2027, depending on Romania's budget situation. During his first press conference, he refrained from giving a definitive answer, stating that decisions will be made after reviewing fiscal data at the year's end. He emphasized the importance of adhering to budget commitments and acknowledged the fragility of the current financial situation. Niculescu's government comprises both PSD ministers and technocrats, having secured 280 votes in Parliament, exceeding the required threshold for approval.
