There is a real risk that Bulgaria will not be able to join the eurozone on January 1, 2024, the Governor of the Bulgarian National Bank Dimitar Radev warned during a hearing in the National Assembly. "The delay in joining the euro area is mainly caused by the lack of a regular government and clear political commitment. Rising inflation is also a big problem", Dimitar Radev noted.
“The political decision about the Eurozone would have a price and it would not be small. However, if Bulgaria does its job and shows political will to adopt the euro on January 1, 2024, the European institutions may compromise in the event that the country fails to fulfill the inflation criterion, Dimitar Radev said, quoted by “Capital”.
