The leader of the ''Alternative for Bulgarian Revival'' party  Rumen Petkov, MP Galin Durev from the coalition ‘'BSP – United Left’' and Iliyan Sarandaliev paid a visit to Moscow. They held meetings with Nikolay Shulginov, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Energy, and Dmitry Lyubinsky, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation, reports pogled.info.

The Russian side expressed concern about the prospects for “Lukoil Bulgaria” and the possibility of actions being taken outside judicial and administrative oversight. Rumen Petkov and MP Galin Durev insisted that no reciprocal measures be taken against Bulgarian companies in Russia and expressed confidence that Lukoil’s expertise would continue to be utilized. Durev and Petkov highlighted that the actions taken will ensure the normal operation of the refinery in Burgas and Bulgaria’s national energy security.
