Economist Laurian Lungu discussed potential measures for reducing Romania's budget deficit by 2027, emphasizing the need to cut public spending and improve revenue collection. He warned that fiscal mismanagement could lead to a downgrade in the country's credit rating. Lungu suggested temporary reductions in public sector salaries and proposed a four-day workweek as a solution.
