„Cel mai grav de la Revoluție încoace. Chiar și operatorii privați de călători vor fi blocați”. Avertismentul unui lider sindical de la calea ferată

The railway system in Romania is facing a critical financial crisis, with employees receiving only partial salaries and potential work stoppages looming. Grigore Mare, president of the National Railway Union, warns that the situation is the worst since the Revolution, as state funding has been blocked for nearly two months. This has led to a vicious cycle of underfunding affecting all operators, including private ones. The union emphasizes the urgent need for government action to release funds and approve a development strategy for 2026-2030. Without immediate financial support, train services may be suspended, impacting the entire transport sector.
