The Minister of Labor, Florin Manole, confirmed that pensions will increase starting January 1, 2027, although the exact percentage is yet to be determined. He mentioned that a proposal for a 7.3% increase could be sent based on statistical data and budget discussions, but he cautioned that this should not be seen as a government promise. Manole emphasized the need for budget savings that do not burden pensioners, highlighting the low income levels of many elderly citizens. Additionally, he confirmed that low-income pensioners will receive financial aid in December as part of a solidarity package, with varying amounts based on their income levels.
