Lukoil Litasco has moved its entire economic activity to Bulgaria, interim Transport Minister Hristo Aleksiev confirmed in Parliament. "It already pays taxes here, and it will pay taxes in Bulgaria next year," he said. 

The minister said the company had paid 90 million levs (46 million euros) in advance tax at the end of last year. Another 600 million levs (306.6 million euros) from Lukoil is expected to flow into the state budget next year. 

At the same time, fuel prices are going seriously down and A95 petrol has fallen by 0.85 levs (EUR 0.43) per litre since the caretaker cabinet took office, the minister claimed.
