## Resource

Romania’s new Prime Minister-designate Eugen Tomac is racing against time to win parliamentary backing for his austerity-driven technocratic government, facing mounting pressure from political rivals, economic instability, and a looming EU deadline for recovery funding. Despite acknowledging the human cost of tough fiscal measures, Tomac insists deficit reduction is non-negotiable, pledging to support entrepreneurs, cut bureaucracy, and speed up energy projects. With far-right support surging and credit ratings at risk, he’s betting transparency and tangible results can rebuild public trust and secure Romania’s future.
