Support for the businesses affected by the Covid crisis must continue, said CITUB President Plamen Dimitrov. He told BNT that the tourism industry has received bookings for this summer no more than 40-50% compared to 2019. Several sectors continue to feel an urgent need for support and for them the measure 60/40 should continue, although in a modified form", the trade unionist emphasized.

According to the caretaker Minister of Social Affairs Galab Donev, the government will do everything possible to continue the anti-Covid measures with "small changes". "Honestly, there is no money in the budget to continue the existing measures," he commented to BNT again last night.
