UDMR leader Kelemen Hunor denies claims of a budget deficit, stating that the PSD left the government with the same financial situation. He emphasizes that no new laws or emergency ordinances were enacted after the PSD's departure, which prevented additional spending. Hunor acknowledges existing payment backlogs in various sectors but argues that the discussion of a budget gap serves a political agenda. He supports transparency in budget execution and warns against overspending, which could lead to costly long-term loans. Additionally, he refutes the notion that budget adjustments would favor PSD municipalities, noting some local governments face financial constraints.
