Buzoianu: România plătește prețul a 35 de ani de investiții insuficiente în infrastructura de apă

Romania faces water supply restrictions due to drought, similar to last year, according to Environment Minister Diana Buzoianu. She highlighted increased investments in critical infrastructure this year, addressing past neglect. Buzoianu noted that the number of communities affected by water access issues remains consistent, prompting authorities to allocate more funds for water resource management in 2026. This year, the budget for critical infrastructure projects has increased significantly, with record allocations for dams and maintenance. Buzoianu emphasized that consistent investment over the years could have mitigated current vulnerabilities in water supply.
