Pensions will increase in 2020 by the largest amount that Romanians have ever seen and that is added to the pension point, the Minister of Finance, Florin Citu, told a press conference on budget rectification.
He stressed that, despite the difficult global economic context, the government has managed to increase pensions in addition to allowances.
"In this difficult global economic context we are going through, we have managed to make this effort and increase the pensions, in addition to increasing the allowances, by the highest amount that Romanians have ever seen added to the pension point. "I challenge Mr Ciolacu to find another country that makes such efforts in economic crisis, increases pensions and allowances with the sums that this government makes," added the Chief of Finance.
Florin Citu did not specify in the conference the percentage by which the pension point will increase.
