PNL leader Nicolae Cuke said he did not support the cash payment limit because not all Romanians should be considered evaders.

This measure was adopted after the parliament took responsibility for the new fiscal measures.

“This decision was made in the coalition. We will continue to go to the coalition and we will support our point of view and depending on the consequences of this measure we will reach a solution in the coalition,” said the Liberal president, who added that this is completely abnormal for the banks. increase the amount of commission as a next step.

“We also had this discussion in the National Political Bureau, and I made it as clear as possible from the beginning that we do not support this measure, that we do not believe that we should not consider all Romanians as causing the consequences of tax evasion. This is people’s money, money is the property of every citizen, and they should continue to have the right and freedom to use it as they see fit. No doubt at this point I had a discussion with you this morning and you asked me if the banks are going to come in and increase the cost of fees starting with this decision. It is absolutely not normal to do this, it was not and should not be a measure for the banking system to increase commissions. At the moment, it is a measure that needs to be analyzed and a decision needs to be made,” Nicolae Chuke said when asked in Sinai on Friday whether he was considering revising the cash limit measure.

On Friday, Prime Minister Marcel Čolaku reacted nervously to Facebook after some banks announced they would raise fees for cash transactions. “The debate about cash does not fuel the greed of banks! It is inadmissible to artificially increase bank commissions!” said Cholaku, who convened a meeting in the Government.
