Prime Minister Florin Cîțu says that the issue of special pensions will be resolved after the reform of the pension system, when all pensions will be granted in a contributory way, but stressed that the decision at this time is not the government, but the Parliament.

“I believe that we will solve the problem of special pensions when we implement the pension reform, based on contributivity, and then we will solve the problem of these two Romanians: some who are special and others who are not. At this time, the Government does not have a decision, everything is in Parliament, “declared Florin Cîţu, on Thursday night, on Digi24.

“It is necessary to reform the entire pension system, because we have a problem that many developed countries have: the demographic problem. In 15 years, the deficit will increase, and those who will work will no longer be able to pay those who will retire, among whom I will be We have to think from today on a way to solve this problem, “said Cîţu.

Asked on several occasions when the special pensions will disappear, Florin Cîţu always gave the same answer: “They will disappear with the reform of the pension system in which we will pass all pensions through taxes.”

Asked about the pensions of the military, the prime minister said that “there is another discussion”, because the military have service pensions and there is a certain contribution. Know that they also pay contributions, only that it is a separate law and we will discuss it in part. They are separated from this system ”, stressed the prime minister.

On the issue of special pensions that are in payment, the award recalled that it is a debate whether it is constitutional to attack the pensions that are already in payment. “I am not a specialist, but we will see what the specialists will say, I understand that there are several debates about it. But we know very well that the pensions of the magistrates were attacked three times in CCR and they won, so … ”added Florin Cîțu. “The idea is that if you have a system that transmits tax, the whole system is something else,” added Cîțu. Asked if it is fair that today we pay a pension of 78,600 lei per month to a man who was a magistrate and a military man, Florin Cîțu replied: “It is fair, it is not fair, there were things that politicians did 30 for years. , we will correct many of them even this year ”.
