„While politicians and experts are arguing who is to blame, whether there are liquefied gas ships, whether the link with Greece will go ahead, fertilizer plants have begun to close production and lay off workers. The Minister of Economy and Industry is yet to conduct a survey of how many companies operate on gas and give them instructions to reduce consumption by 15%.“
This is what BSP leader Korneliya Ninova wrote on the Facebook social network. According to her, these data are available – 28,000 enterprises use gas, and 250,000 people work in them.
„Don’t make them reduce gas consumption. It can’t be done. If they do, they have to stop working, and some of them will never be able to start the machines again,„, Ninova urged.
According to the former Minister of Economy, valuable time is wasted in quarrels and PR campaigns. She added: „The topic is ideologized and used as an election campaign, and it is vitally important for the state and the people. There is only one solution at this stage for the economy and households – immediate negotiations with Gazprom. So did a number of European leaders. We have been repeating it since March. Not if necessary, as the сaretaker Minister of Energy says. It is now imperative.”
