Bulgaria can sell to Ukraine gas purchased under the agreement with the Turkish company BOTAŞ, the President's Secretary for Economy Hristo Aleksiev said for bTV. Hristo Alexiev participated in the talks between Ukraine‘s President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and Bulgaria's head of state Rumen Radev.

"We proposed that Bulgaria supplies Ukraine with additional quantities of gas of non-Russian origin through its gas transmission network and that of Romania under the contract between the caretaker government and BOTAŞ for access to their LNG terminals", Hristo Aleksiev said. In his words, the agreement for the import of large quantities of gas was seeking solidarity with other countries which need to diversify their energy sources and receive gas of non-Russian origin.
