Mureșan, declarație controversată despre pensiile magistraților

Siegfried Mureșan, the designated Prime Minister, presented his government program and ministerial list to Parliament. He highlighted the need to address pension inequalities, noting that the minimum pension is lower than the minimum wage. Mureșan's support for Andrea Chiș as Minister of Justice raised eyebrows due to her special pension of around €7,500, despite his criticism of judges receiving higher pensions than salaries. Chiș, a former judge, retired at 49 and has been involved in controversies regarding the justice system. Critics pointed out the inconsistency in Mureșan's stance on early retirement for judges, as Chiș exemplifies the very issue he condemned.
