Comuna cu cele mai mari datorii la stat a crescut fondul de salarii cu 1.200.000 lei. „Totul e blocat” • Newsweek România

Certeju de Sus, the most indebted commune in Romania, has increased its salary fund by 1.2 million lei despite having debts of 8.7 million lei. The commune's financial struggles continue as it relies heavily on state subsidies. Politicians resist administrative reforms that could reduce the number of communes, even as many lack the minimum population required by law. The mayor acknowledges the significant debt, which hinders access to European funds, and despite efforts, the debt level remains unchanged.
