Românii pleacă pe capete din țară: Recordul cetățenilor care au părăsit definitiv România anul trecut, depășit doar de anul 1990

In 2025, nearly 55,000 Romanians permanently emigrated, marking the highest number since 1990. The trend of permanent departures has increased significantly in recent years, while returns to Romania have sharply declined. Economic factors, particularly the search for better-paying jobs, remain the primary reason for emigration. A significant portion of those who left are young individuals, with many not planning to return. Data indicates that over 4.16 million Romanians have left since 1990, with a substantial impact from external migration on the country's population decline.
