For three months now, the government has been negotiating with the opposition to reach a broad agreement regarding higher education reform. In March, they proposed, among others, to shorten 50% of masters degrees to one year. Today, the compromise stands at 36% of masters degrees. However, a compromise that the opposition is still not comfortable with. They claim that for such an experiment, 5% would be a more fitting percentage, which is quite far from what the government initially planned.
- The government has the necessary majority to pass the reform, but they wish to include more parties in the agreement to strengthen it and ensure it will not be changed after the next elections.
- The negotiations will most likely last until next year.
