The oil refinery Lukoil Neftohim Burgas has made payments to the Electricity System Security Fund amounting to 45 million Leva (EUR 22.9 million), a sum lower than the sum set down by the Ministry of Economy, the Fund told the BNR.
According to the act on compensation for consumer transport costs, Lukoil was supposed to pay the Fund around 70 million Leva (EUR 35.7 million) for December 2023. The Ministry of Economy comments that the payments are public receivables and are subject to procedures of enforcement by enforcement authorities as stipulated in the Code of Tax and Social Security Procedures.
“Bulgaria is a European country and will not allow to be treated in such a humiliating way by Lukoil or by any other Russian company, structure or person,” commented Delyan Peevski, chair of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms parliamentary group, and demanded that the competent state authorities take the necessary steps immediately to collect the outstanding 25 million Lreva (EUR 12.7 million).
