"The only thing I can guarantee you is that we will increase pensions. The increase will be decided after we have all the economic analyzes to present the economic reality in Romania and the ability to increase pensions, so as to ensure the payment of pensions all the time, not to pretend that we will increase the pensions and after that not to be able to pay them. We will increase the pensions, the percentage with which we will increase the pensions will be made public after finalizing the analyzes," Orban said at the end of the visit paid to the construction site of the bridge over the Danube, in the Macin - Smardan area, Tulcea county, when asked about the increase of the pension point by 40%.
