Kelemen Hunor, leader of UDMR, has requested the new government to adjust pensions according to inflation, despite previously agreeing to freeze them for two years. He proposed a pension increase of 200 lei, reflecting a 7.3% rise based on the average pension of 2,820 lei. While in power, UDMR supported the decision not to index pensions for 2025 and 2026, leading to an average loss of 580 lei for pensioners over the past two years. The PSD party is advocating for a pension increase exceeding 7%, while the Ministry of Finance prefers a rise of 3-5%.
