Florin Cîțu avertizează: Prognoza de inflație s-a dublat. Care sunt motivele

Former Prime Minister Florin Cîțu warns that inflation rates may double in the coming months. He argues that a truly independent central bank should raise interest rates to curb inflation and pressure politicians to reduce spending. Cîțu criticizes the current low interest rates, suggesting they protect political interests at the expense of citizens. Recent data shows Romania has the highest inflation in the EU, with annual inflation dropping to 6.2% in August 2026, down from over 10% in June. Services are the main contributors to rising prices, with food and non-food goods also increasing significantly.
