„Nu putem supraviețui”. Revoltă după anunțul creșterii pensiilor cu doar 7% în 2027
Pensions are expected to be indexed in 2027 after a two-year freeze, according to Florin Manole from PSD. However, pensioners express concerns that a potential 7% increase would only add about 70 lei to a 1,000 lei pension, insufficient to cover rising costs. Silvia Petre, president of the Timiș Pensioners Association, criticized the lack of action on pension issues, particularly for those who worked in special labor groups. She warned that if the new government fails to act, pensioners may escalate their grievances to European institutions. Many elderly individuals face financial difficulties, risking their homes due to unpaid utility bills. Petre emphasized the need for the Ministry of Labor to address these urgent issues, as the current situation is unsustainable for pensioners.
