Presidential aide: One point VAT increase would bring 500 million euro to the budget
But he said for Romanian news channel Realitatea TV that the issue - which has come up in the media this week - has not been discussed so far and that a VAT increase would not be an issue of official talks this year.
Finance minister Gheorghe Pogea said on Tuesday that the Government might consider a reform of budget revenues suggesting that a VAT increase might be possible.
