Romania faces political instability and economic risks under interim government

Ilie Bolojan PNL PNRR Romanian politics Salary Law

Romania faces significant political and economic instability as the interim government, led by Ilie Bolojan, struggles to form a full administration. A critical deadline looms regarding the Salary Law; failure to adopt it could result in the loss of 770 million euros from the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR).

Internal political tensions are high within the National Liberal Party (PNL). Disputes have emerged over leadership changes in Bucharest sectors and legal battles regarding the dismissal of party members. Meanwhile, the Government Employees Union (SAALG) has called for Bolojan's resignation following investigations into government officials, including Cristina Trăilă.

In the health sector, former Minister Alexandru Rogobete has demanded the resignation of CNAS President Horațiu Moldovan, accusing him of misrepresenting shortages of cytostatic drugs and mismanaging patient access to treatments. Additionally, local leaders like Alin Tișe have criticized new legislation that could render many local councilors in health, education, and legal sectors incompatible with their roles, potentially paralyzing local administrations.
