There are no plans for the privatization of the Vazovski Machine-Building Plants (VMZ) in Sopot, and the information circulating in this regard is speculative, said Bulgaria’s Minister of Economy and Industry Petar Dilov at a working meeting with the President of the Confederation of Independent Trade Unions in Bulgaria, Plamen Dimitrov.
