We no longer offer the cheapest labor in the EU. With the increase in incomes, we have overtaken Hungary and Bulgaria is now second to last, Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov said at a Facebook briefing. The only thing that stops us for the Eurozone is the higher inflation in this country, since we started from a lower level of incomes.
At a meeting with president of the European Central Bank, Christine Lagarde, PM Denkov was told that "inflation is what Bulgaria needs to work on". We are discussing with the Minister of Finance what else we could do to reduce inflation faster. Some of our inflation comes from higher incomes in recent years, which are higher than inflation, but also because of the catch-up we have to do and the higher growth, which is one of the highest in the EU for 2023, the Prime Minister said.
