The underperformance of public institutions in Romania is linked to recent public policy choices, particularly in salary policies, according to Florin Zaharia from the Ministry of Finance. He highlighted the structural issues in Romania's economy, particularly in the industrial sector, which has seen a decline. Zaharia emphasized the need for a fiscal policy that supports production and investment while managing deficits to encourage investment. He noted the high energy prices in Romania and the government's commitment to structural investments rather than subsidies. The Ministry aims to finance projects under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan to improve energy capacity and support the private sector.
