I want to make all Bulgarians happy. Gasoline and diesel will apparently drop by one leva at all gas stations from today, said Mr. Boyko Borisov. Finally, Delyan's leva will come into effect (Delyan Dobrev - ed. note). Yes, yes, but no. Here is the graph for January - gasoline and diesel have gone up by eight stotinki. The lies are starting to come to light. The GERB government came and fuel prices went up by eight stotinki. No matter how much Mr. Borisov repeats the 18 billion deficit, the accounts show otherwise. The caretaker cabinet introduced a budget with a 3% deficit. GDP is 200 billion. If you multiply 3% by 200 billion. It's not 18 billion, it's six. Let's stop the lies. We will expose every lie of GERB. Today we exposed the lie about fuel. In the coming days we will also expose the deficit. We will not leave them alone.
This was stated on the sidelines of the parliament by the co-chairman of "Continuing the Change" Kiril Petkov.
"Today at the presidential council I saw an excessive activity on the part of Delyan Peevski on the topic of "Lukoil", said the chairman of the PP-DB PG and former Prime Minister, academician Nikolay Denkov. "He demanded that "Lukoil" be bought immediately by the state. Imagine how we get 3 billion. from the budget with all the talk about a hole in the budget and we buy "Lukoil" so that it falls into the hands of Peevski or an energy minister who has a business under the "Lukoil" brand. We want a hearing and discussion in the committees so that the right decision can be made," he added.
"Several things are important for "Lukoil". Over the last 25 years, a complete monopoly has been created in the fuel sector and we all see how it operates," said former Economy Minister Bogdan Bogdanov. "In our government, we have started the first steps towards breaking this monopoly. There must be a serious analysis of whether there is a capacity for the nationalization of "Lukoil". This is important for Bulgaria's strategic security. The refinery is under constant pressure. We see an increase in fuel prices in Bulgaria, which is absolutely unjustified, because oil prices around the world are falling. Bulgaria must have control over its strategic sites. There was an attempt to influence me as minister for the gunpowder plant. Unfortunately, this project continues to be sabotaged. They were unable to break through us and were able to use the National Security Agency to stop this important project," Bogdanov said.
