During a meeting with representatives of the Eastern Committee of German Economy, Bulgarian Deputy Ministers of Economy, Daniela Vezieva and Lyuben Petrov, presented opportunities for expanding investments and trade between Bulgaria and Germany.

A trend exists for German companies who plan to withdraw their investments from China and Turkey to benefit from the advantages offered by the business environment in the region, it was announced. We need to attract businesses here, because this would make gross domestic product rise, as well as trade, said at the forum Michael Harms – Executive Director of the Eastern Committee of German Economy, which represents the interests of more than 200 German companies in 21 countries in Eastern Europe. Lyuben Petrov has pointed out that Bulgaria could be a potential business and investment destination for companies because of the crisis in Ukraine and sanctions against Russia.
