The National Liberal Party (PNL) accuses the Social Democratic Party (PSD) of spreading misinformation regarding Romania's budget deficit figures from Eurostat. PNL asserts that the actual budget deficit for the first half of the year is 2% of GDP, contrasting with PSD's claims. They emphasize that the 9.2% figure cited by PSD pertains to the second quarter and is misleading. PNL highlights that international rating agencies have recognized the government's efforts to reduce the deficit, with estimates lower than the government's target. They clarify that differences in methodologies do not indicate hidden budgetary issues but are due to the timing of European fund registrations and payment obligations.
