Băsescu: „Dacă stăm și așteptăm, va fi groasă”. Avertisment privind petrolul și prețurile carburanților

Former President Traian Băsescu warns of potential rising fuel prices in Romania due to global oil market crises. He predicts that oil prices could exceed $120 per barrel if Saudi Arabia fails to restore key transport routes. Băsescu emphasizes the need for the government to cut public spending to mitigate the impact of an energy shock. He notes that the current situation may worsen, especially with ongoing supply issues from the Middle East. Despite challenges, he highlights Romania's advantage in accessing Kazakh oil through the Black Sea, which could help maintain reasonable fuel prices if supply routes remain intact. Băsescu urges the state to prioritize spending cuts to prepare for potential price hikes.
