We are moving towards the option of not having a quickly adopted budget for 2025, Lachezar Bogdanov, chief economist from the Institute for Market Economics, told BNR.
In presenting the institute's alternative state budget, the researcher said the 3% deficit limit was high. When you have tax revenue growth of over 12%, obviously the economy is doing well.

It's not about cutting, it's about containing this spending growth," the economist said, calling for ambitions to be aligned with the macroeconomic environment.
