Proposal from PP-DB: One-time indexation of salaries according to the accumulated inflation for this year  - 1

PP-DB will make a proposal for a one-time indexation of incomes according to the accumulated inflation for 2025, BNT reports. The leader of "We Continue the Change" Assen Vassilev reminded that the government's proposed extension budget provides for an increase from January 1, 2026, of the minimum wage to 620 euros, and a government decree has also raised the poverty line, on which social payments depend.

We propose that for all those who are not on the minimum wage, there should be a one-time indexation in the amount of the annual inflation accumulated as of December 31, this is completely within the budget's capabilities, because revenues grow with the growth of the economy plus the growth of inflation, so there will be no worries about covering these expenses," said Vassilev.

He reminded that the data of the National Statistical Institute on inflation for 2025 is yet to be seen, but as of today it is around 5%.

"This option is much better for us, because we are simultaneously dealing with a problem from the previous ones budgets that had 20 billion loans and huge deficits that were putting Bulgaria in Romanian and Greek scenarios, here the loans and uncontrolled deficit are gone, and there is compensation of income with inflation, so that the elections can be held in a calm atmosphere, said the MP from "Yes, Bulgaria" Martin Dimitrov.
