If there is a sale of Lukoil, it should be to a clear owner, a strategic investor in the company. This was stated by Finance Minister Assen Vassilev to Nova TV. The comment is about the information that Lukoil is reviewing its operation in Bulgaria and is considering selling its business in the country. To sell such a strategic asset to an offshore company is not acceptable to the government, Vassilev said. A sham sale will not happen while I am involved in the process, he promised. The minister explained that in 2023 Lukoil paid about 200 million euros in taxes.
