The Bank of Estonia has warned that the budget deficit could lead interest costs to reach one billion euros in ten years, which is why it calls for an inter-party agreement to reduce the government sector's debt burden and to begin reducing the budget deficit, but there are disagreements within the coalition regarding cuts, which is why opposition parties' demands for substantial cuts are becoming increasingly serious.
