Russia’s Lukoil said it reserves the right to pursue legal action to defend its rights and legitimate interests in Bulgaria after a special administrator took control of its local assets.

Lukoil is taking “all necessary steps” to complete the sale of its refinery, fuel retail network and other assets in Bulgaria to a new owner and expects the special administrator’s involvement “not to hinder this process,” the company said in a statement cited by Reuters, Bulgarian National Radio’s Horizont channel reported.
