"There can be no cheap and reliable gas from Russia," MP Radan Kanev said in an interview with BNR. He pointed out that gas in the current crisis is expensive, but Russian gas, unlike the others, is not only expensive but also very insecure.

The MEP expressed indignation at statements of officials ranging from caretaker ministers to the "allegedly pro-Western" parties GERB and MRF. According to him, they repeat the lies of Russian propaganda that "Gazprom" can sue this country despite the unilateral violation of the contract.

According to the MEP, there will be arbitration and Bulgaria must get back the billions of losses caused by the Russian company. "Any measure that can pressure the Kremlin to end the war is good, including a ban on issuing visas to Russian citizens," Radan Kanev also said.
