The new government is preparing for a difficult period, with severe backlash expected from the population due to a 20% cut in public sector jobs and tax hikes, including VAT and excise duties. Romania risks downgrading its country rating if its deficit of 9.3% of GDP is not reduced to 2.8% by 2030, as recommended by the European Commission. The government will reassess investment projects and restrict support programs to boost exports and reduce imports.
