Bolojan: România ar putea ajunge la un deficit bugetar de circa 6% în 2026

Interim Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan predicts Romania can achieve a budget deficit of around 6% this year if fiscal policies are maintained. He also estimates inflation could drop to 5%, contingent on adherence to the established fiscal direction. Bolojan warns that failing to maintain this trajectory could lead to significant budgetary imbalances and stricter fiscal measures in the future. He highlights international events, particularly the ongoing conflict in the Black Sea region, as factors influencing rising fuel prices and inflation. The Prime Minister emphasizes the importance of meeting European Commission targets to avoid critical economic scenarios in the coming years.
