Until the average income of the population reaches 80% of the European average, we should not enter the euro area. Inflation goes along with it and there must be some reserves, Georgi Kadiev, former Deputy Minister of Finance, part of “The Left” party, has told the BNR.
According to him, however, Bulgaria is moving in the right direction and has reached 64% of the average European income. "We are on the grey list for money laundering. This is a reason to reject our joining. We don't even have a regular government. Why do we claim that we are ready for the Eurozone?", he said commenting on the claims of the BNB Governor that this country's entry into the Eurozone is possible in 2025. "If I had to bet, I would rather expect us to enter in 2027, but that doesn't mean we should miss on the chance for 2026," Kadiev said.
