Bulgaria’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Assen Vassilev has refuted claims made by GERB-SDS, which are also the reasons of the two opposition parties for a motion of no confidence against the cabinet. The Finance Minister called the claims groundless. He presented data from the BNB on foreign investments in Bulgaria totaling 883 million euros in the first quarter of the year. When it comes to high inflation, he pointed out that this happens at pan-European level and EU countries were making joint efforts to curb it.
"The deficit is exactly as approved by the National Assembly. Exports have grown by 20% in all areas of the economy. Debt has also been reduced. Theft in the past is the reason we don't have good roads and hospitals," Minister Assen Vassilev has told the opposition.
