Vice President Iliana Yotova called on the government to draw up a national plan by mid-March, taking into account all risks stemming from the current crises. She participated in the Plovdiv Fair at the opening of a large-scale forum for agriculture, wine, food and equipment.

According to the Vice President, the plan should be developed in three directions: "guaranteeing the security of Bulgarian citizens in the context of the deepening military conflict in Ukraine; actions to address the flow of refugees; measures to help Bulgarian citizens and the Bulgarian economy in a situation of galloping inflation and rising prices.” Iliana Yotova also said that at the informal meeting of European leaders in Versailles, Prime Minister Kiril Petkov should ask for a revision of the Green Deal and extension of the term of operation of thermal power plants to soften the impact of the deepening crisis in the energy sector.
