In recent months, with a lot of pressure, we managed to compensate for inflation. However, prices remained high, meat and cheese did not become cheaper. Our fight remains for real income growth. We have set about a 13% increase, part of which has already happened through collective labor agreements in large enterprises. Prices continue to rise, but at a slower pace. This is what KNSB president Plamen Dimitrov said in "Your Day". on Nova News.
"In the economy, there is a slowdown in some sectors, a decrease in orders. This, given the recession in Western Europe, can bring very serious problems to the labor market by the end of the year. I see no threats in the implementation of the income and expenditure part of the budget. Territorial plans for a just transition were handed over to Brussels without consulting us. We will have to implement them, which means they will be rewritten on the fly. The first 170 people have already been made redundant by the "ContourGlobal" TPP. On May 10, with the Minister of Social Affairs and the President of KT "Support" we will visit Stara Zagora and see if they can find jobs. This will be a sign for others working in the sector whether the promises will remain a chimera or will be fulfilled," he said.

In his words, there are still more young people going abroad than those who have returned. That is why unemployment in our country is increasing.
