There is no mention in the National Liberal Party's (PNL) governing program about cutting wages in the public sector, but it's a certainty that the dignitaries' salaries will be frozen, Economy Minister Virgil Popescu told private broadcaster Antena 3 on Thursday evening, when asked to comment on the suggestion of National Bank chief economist Valentin Lazea to cut public servants' wages by 20 percent, according to AGERPRES.
Agriculture Minister Adrian Oros too said that such a solution is not feasible.
"I don't think such a solution is feasible either. Of course, any analyst has the right to an opinion. He probably relies on certain data he has access to, but not for one second has this been talked about in the government or the National Liberal Party," Oros said.
