The European Commission will announce next month the amount under the Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP), the payment of which may be withheld if the required conditions are not fulfilled.
"We have sent Bulgaria a letter detailing the amount in question, which will not be paid unless the condition relating to the Anti-Corruption Commission is met. There is a one-month deadline for a response. If we then determine that this condition has not been met, payment will be withheld for a further six months," said the EC spokesperson Maciej Berestecki.
Berestecki dismissed any links between a Renew Europe letter to the European Commission regarding the arrest of Varna Mayor Blagomir Kotsev, who is accused of being involved in a bribery scheme, and the assessment of Recovery Plan funds. They said the two cases were entirely unrelated.
