Regarding the possible renewal of talks with Gazprom, Iliana Iotova said: "Those who are currently insisting that these talks be resumed as soon as possible could have done so as early as March, when Deputy Prime Minister Assen Vassilev unilaterally terminated these talks and declared that we would never have contracts with Gazprom again.”
