Romania is likely to face a more difficult economic year in 2026 than previously expected, prime minister Ilie Bolojan said, citing global instability and rising prices linked to tensions in the Middle East. He warned that higher costs could lead to a mild economic contraction.
Speaking on Digi24, as quoted by Agerpres, Bolojan pointed to the international context, particularly the situation involving Iran, as a key factor affecting European markets and, indirectly, Romania.
