The ruling majority has introduced a bill limiting the export of diesel and aviation fuel. “This is a temporary measure. There is fuel for months to come, not counting the State Reserve,” Delyan Dobrev from the GERB party, said.

“Prices are rising in the countries around us. According to us, this is because there is speculation about the geopolitical situation. In the draft, we give flexibility to the director of the Customs Agency to allow the export of certain products at his discretion,” the MP specified.

Opposition party “Yes, Bulgaria” have requested an urgent hearing in a closed session in parliament of the ministers of economy, energy, finance and the head of the Agency for National Security, so that they can provide information about the real situation with fuels.
