The renegotiation of the Recovery and Resilience Plan (RSP) is not a trap, but a lifeline for the cabinet, because we gave them the strongest weapon with which to go to Europe and protect the Bulgarian national interest.

The implementation of the EPA means that we have to shut down our coal-fired power generation.

We don't have to do it.

If we were fulfilling the commitment in PVU, we are already in violation.

If we fulfill it, we will become an importer of electricity.

This was stated by the former Minister of Energy and current MP from GERB-SDS Delyan Dobrev

Delyan Dobrev is the Deputy Minister of Economy, Energy and Tourism (department: in the program "More of the Day" on BNT.

In his words, the proposal for the construction of the 7th and 8th units of the Kozloduy NPP is a vision for the Bulgarian energy industry, because the reactors will operate for the next 80 years.

"The common European target is for us to reduce our carbon emissions by 50%, taking 1990 as a base year. We have already met these targets.

Our carbon footprint is 1.5%.

In this field, we are the best in Europe.

We are the country that pollutes the environment the least, but we are punished the most.

Why?" Dobrev asks.

Temenuzka Petkova (GERB): With the renegotiation of the PVU, we will correct the mistake of the previous government in energy

He specified that the stated commitment to the EU by Boyko Borisov for a 50% reduction in harmful emissions was based on 1990, when the "Kremikovtsi" metallurgical plant was operating.

If we follow his promise, we can even open new thermal power plants", explained Delyan Dobrev

According to Dobrev, the Belene NPP project is impossible to happen.

"We cannot finance it, it is not clear how we will fulfill it.

We will find something to do with the reactors - we might put them in a museum.

We cannot use them because they are Russian and under sanctions," he emphasized.

“The Department of Energy has done a lot of work to address outstanding issues.

However, they have not introduced a single bill," Dobrev pointed out.

When asked about fuel compensation, he explained: "The criterion will be the maximum insurance threshold.

Only a few percent of the population will not receive a fuel discount from the state.

We take BGN 2 million from Lukoil and give it to the people.

People who don't have a car can get a voucher for public transport," said Delyan Dobrev

On the occasion of the terminated concession of "Lukoil" in Rosenets, the deputy stated: "We had to comply with EU sanctions not to export Russian fuel.

This was a political gesture towards Putin and his oligarchs, who must understand that they cannot rely on Bulgaria".

Delyan Dobrev also commented on the probability of forming a cabinet with the third term of the president as follows: "I hope that the holder of the third term is Democratic Bulgaria, because only there I see the realization of a cabinet.

We have declared support, which automatically means 140 MPs.

I hope more parties will join it".
