„It is time to resign. „Stand up Bulgaria“ demand the resignation of the Minister of Energy due to the completely wrong positions of the country in the energy sphere, the admission of Bulgaria to become a hostage of intermediaries and commission agents, due to the failure to control energy prices due to betrayal of citizens and businesses in the interests of the friends of power.“
This was demanded by leader of „Stand Up Bulgaria“ Maya Manolova in a position to the media regarding the announced new prices of district heating and electricity producers. According to the Social Party, the mediators of the four-party coalition will cost the Bulgarian people 30% to 330% more expensive heating, 30% more expensive gas and an increase in the price of electricity.
„Given the repeated rise in prices for gas, heating and electricity, the government’s announced anti-crisis measures seem pathetic. They are just dust in the eyes of the people,„, the political force said.
Manolova spoke out against citizens paying for the mistakes and lobbying of politicians. According to her party’s position, in May alone the profit of commission agents and intermediaries will be BGN 110 million, who will probably participate in the liquefied natural gas deal by providing capacity at the terminal in Greece and by swap deals.
