In the first quarter of 2023, Romania had one of the highest increases in public debt-to-GDP, with a 4.1 percentage points increase, similar to Austria, and after Poland (6.1 pp). Public debt reached RON 998.1 billion, equivalent to 55.8% of GDP. In the context of rising debt, the Bolojan government has proposed fiscal measures, including VAT increases and a public sector wage freeze, to reduce spending.
