"We didn’t earmark any funds for compensations in the first three months of the year. We’ll start reallocating money in May to people who were deported in the communist era and those claiming money for seized property,” Vosganian told a news conference.

The money allotted in May will come from the state budget, while the money for June will come from the Finance Ministry’s budget. Total funds for compensations amount to RON 75 million.
