"The only one who can pull the switch is the state, "Bulgargaz" is a state enterprise, the prime minister is from GERB, the official government is from GERB. The liabilities to the counterparties amount to BGN 1.6 billion and they date back more than 20 years. Right now in a pre-election situation for 20 million unpaid liabilities, and the day after the company announced readiness for the start of the heating season, this is a provocation by GERB", Bonev is convinced.

"Without a state injection, it is not possible - the state is one of the reasons for the accumulation of debts. The price at which they buy natural gas is market, and the price at which they sell is regulated by KEVR. Especially during the invasion of Ukraine, this difference became huge, this burden could not be transferred to the subscribers, the state had to cover it", said Bonev.
From "Save Sofia" are adamant that the solution to the debt crisis of "Toplofication" it is not the privatization of the company.
