Bulgaria has sufficient quantities of fuel and the 90-day reserves are secured at around 98%, Asen Asenov, Chairman of the State Reserve and Wartime Stocks State Agency, told bTV. The country has a gasoline reserve for 35 days and a diesel reserve for over 50 days. In the event of a crisis, fuel from the reserve can be distributed without the bio-component to reach the market faster. The price for the end consumer will follow market rates to avoid shocks and speculation, Asen Asenov added.
