The measure of a 25 stotinki (0.13 eurocent) discount per litre of fuel will be in place until the end of the year, and will cost 40 million Leva (EUR 20.4 million), Hristo Aleksiev, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport in the caretaker cabinet said for Nova TV.
“For next year we are planning a different measure – again as compensation for the high fuel prices. It will be targeted at the most vulnerable groups, the money will not be doled out to everyone in equal measure,” Hristo Aleksiev said. Besides for private vehicles, there will also be compensation for people using public and railway transport. Vice Premier Aleksiev stated that efforts must be made to raise the minimum salary. “When inflation is high, people have to spend more and their incomes lag behind this inflation rate,” he commented.
