Lawmakers have finalized the tax and budget framework for 2027, setting the country's fiscal course two years out. Separately, the government faces the possible loss of €15 million in EU funding, while internal friction has emerged as a minister publicly criticized the Prime Minister. A fresh investigation has detailed the real estate holdings of Mihai Popșoi, alleging he invested in Trușeni and Durlești alongside controversial partners. In the media sector, the independent outlet Agora has announced it will abandon its own website after 12 years to publish exclusively on social media and the multi-publisher platform Laziar from May 2026. The government is also being urged to regulate taxi platforms like Yandex Go more strictly, specifically regarding the verification of user data. While drug prices remain a point of public anxiety, Marcel Spatari insists that no decision to increase costs has been made.
