At a meeting with President Rumen Radev, representatives of the local authorities in Topolovgrad called for the elimination of the subjective factor in the distribution of government subsidies to municipalities, as well as to take into account their specific characteristics.

The head of state pointed out that independent financing of municipalities from the central budget will facilitate initiative and effective decision making at local level.
