Bulgaria continues to compete for the new Volkswagen plant. This is a headline in influential German newspaper Handelsblatt. In an interview for the paper, Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said that Bulgaria was outperforming all of the countries in the region when it came to low investment risk.

Volkswagen's management told Handelsblatt negotiations with major candidates for the new plant were ongoing.
