An increase in pensions this year over the real budgetary possibilities could cause pension cuts in the coming years, said on Monday the Minister of Labor and Social Protection, Violeta Alexandru.
The labor minister stressed that she will not advance a percentage on the increase in pensions in September before discussing with the leadership of the Ministry of Finance.
She said that it would be very easy for her to make a law to increase pensions by 80pct, but this would not be correct.
