Dragos Pislaru: Romania might adopt euro in 2032

September 9, 2026

Romania could have a target in entering the euro zone in 2032 , said Dragos Pislaru, the provisional minister for Investments and European Projects. According to him, adopting the European currency depends on the fiscal-budget consolidation, on a coherent development plan and political stability. Pislaru told TVR Info that the following years should be used to put finances in order and carry out criteria needed to adopt euro.   “The passage to euro can be done by observing indicators. We are talking about budget deficit, public debt , things concerning this consolidation . I remind you that the aim is that until 2030 we should put in order our finances, although I see the possibility to have a harmonzation between fiscal-budget consolidation, adopting a coherent development plan for the country for 2028-2034.”   “When we have an alignment in an area of fiscal-budget adaptation, this area of growth, development and political stability, Romania may become an important target for entering the euro zone,”the minister added. At this moment, Romania is not ready to adopt the euro currency and the path to the euro zone is a long one. This country does not participate in the ERM II mechanism, considered the anteroom to euro, a compulsory stage before accession.   The conclusion appears in the Convergence report for 2026, released on June by the European Commission, which analysed the situation of Romania, Czechia , Hungary, Poland and Sweden. The document shows that none of the five states analysed fulfils all conditions needed to adopt euro.   The evaluation took into account price stability, the situation of public finances, the stability of the exchange rate and the level of long term interest rates, as well as the compatibility of national law with norms of the Economic and Monetary Union.(Photo:https://www.facebook.com/)
