Metro crisis. Union leader: "From September 16th, no one guarantees that it will work" Metrorex still has 3,000 lei in its accounts

The Free Metro Union warns of a potential metro shutdown due to financial issues, with only 3,000 lei left in Metrorex's accounts. Salaries are at risk of not being paid on time, prompting concerns among employees. The union has alerted authorities about the funding shortfall since early this year, predicting a crisis by September. Metrorex's budget approval delays have exacerbated the situation, leading to a significant staff shortage and unpaid vacation days. Union leaders emphasize the need for immediate action to resolve the financial crisis and ensure operations continue.
