Troika’s recipe to reduce the cost of state pensions in the coming year is more work years in order for someone to receive their pension. According to information, troika and the financial team of the government are occupied with the burden on the state budget by the wave of early retirements in the public and private sectors, coupled with high unemployment and lack of insurance and tax returns. Therefore, one of the proposals is to increase the insurance period or even the age limits for retirement. The next days and weeks could be decisive for the fate of such a measure, however, it has not yet formally been proposed to the political leaders that support the government.
