Bulgaria can withdraw from the derogation by force of which Lukoil can use Russian oil up until the end of 2024, without any change to fuel prices, said Prime Minister Nikolay Denkov. Fuel prices in Bulgaria depend on the regional market, PM Denkov said further. 

The country can use Russian oil until the end of 2024, but before the parliamentary summer vacation, GERB, We Continue the Change/Democratic Bulgaria and the Movement for Rights and Freedoms proposed a revocation of the derogation.
