Record după Revoluție. Aproape 55.000 de români au plecat definitiv din țară în 2025
In 2025, Romania saw the highest number of permanent departures in 35 years, with nearly 55,000 citizens moving abroad. This marks a significant increase compared to previous years, with a notable drop in those returning to Romania. The trend of emigration has fluctuated since the early 1990s, with a peak in 1990. Recent surveys indicate that the main reason for leaving is the pursuit of better-paying jobs, followed by the desire for improved public services and a fresh start abroad.
