This will be one of the most complicated campaigns for political forces, because we expect them to offer the best and most effective measures to overcome the crises. This was stated by President Iliana Yotova to journalists.
Yotova explained that the measure to increase fuel prices through compensation of 20 euros was not commented on by her. “I accepted it as a first and very small step towards the most vulnerable people.
Let's also see whether the methodology proposed by the Council of Ministers will work. When we talked about the tasks before the cabinet, even upon its appointment, this was just one of the measures I insisted on.
From now on, I want to have a comprehensive package that will have an impact against price display“, Yotova was categorical.
According to her, there are many solutions and options for this, referring to some that are already being tested by European Union members. The President expressed her disappointment with the meeting in Brussels. “I am really disappointed with the last meeting in Brussels - yesterday and today. I expected the EU and the EC to propose a fairly specific set of measures, but things are again only in the future. It is expected that the member states themselves will take measures that will work and I expect this to be done by the Bulgarian government“, added Iliyana Yotova.
She announced that on Tuesday she had invited the CPC because they have two very serious analyses and have specific measures that she wants to hear. “So that prices can calm down, because Bulgarians are exhausted. We cannot stand by and wait and observe the processes - it is time for active activity“, commented the head of state.
