The budget of Romania for 2026 - 730 billion lei in revenues, 860 billion lei in expenses. The deficit is 150 billion lei. A deficit of 150 billion lei for 2026 - this is equivalent to the entire National Recovery and Resilience Plan for five years or 2500 km of highways constructed from scratch, or 45 regional hospitals. We are spending money that we do not actually have. Of this amount, 60 billion lei goes solely to interest on the already accumulated debt. Now, regarding the rating agencies: we are currently on the brink of whether Romania will be recommended as an investment destination or not. A downgrade in rating could cause pension funds to withdraw from Romania, which would mean higher borrowing costs for us. #Румъния #приоритети #хибриднаВойна (translated)

The debt to be undertaken in 2027 is 8.6 billion euros," stated Donev. #бюджет #икономика #България (translated)
