Ponta told a conference organized by the U.S. Embassy, the American Chamber of Commerce in Romania (AmCham Romania) and AMRO that the 2% of the GDP that Romania should spend as public investments by the end of the year represents an important amount (over $3 billion), and that the capital invested in economy will impact the entire development of the country.
The PM also said that the government, as well as the representatives of the business environment, should focus on the reasons why public investments, although covered from the budget, are so difficult to be achieved.
