România a încheiat primul semestru cu deficit bugetar de doar 2% din PIB, față de 3,64% anul trecut

Romania's budget deficit decreased to 2% of GDP in the first half of the year, down from 3.64% last year, due to reduced current spending and increased revenue collection. Total revenues reached 342.52 billion lei, marking a 10.3% increase compared to the previous year. The government emphasized the importance of maintaining this fiscal discipline to retain investment ratings. Total expenditures slightly increased to 383.55 billion lei, with significant cuts in current spending while protecting public investments. The rise in EU fund absorption is seen as crucial for supporting major public projects.
