"The Argentine sunflower that arrived in our country does not meet European requirements." This is the official position of the Bulgarian authorities as of today.
This was noted by the leader of "Unruly Bulgaria" Cornelia Ninova.
The excuse that it was only for processing and will then be exported sounds false. With this excuse, the rulers are trying to blind our eyes. There are no guarantees that processed quantities will not remain in the country and reach the Bulgarian table. It is mandatory for the Minister of Agriculture to prevent unloading on Bulgarian territory.
There is enough Bulgarian production. With this import, Bulgarian, native production is being killed. With this import, people are being poisoned with pesticides and GMOs. With such a policy, jobs and budget revenues are being lost, regions are being depopulated. We from Unrepentant Bulgaria categorically and consistently stand for the protection of Bulgarian, native, clean and delicious food.”
