In his statement, Kiril Petkov also focused on overcoming the Covid crisis, providing assistance to those fleeing the war in Ukraine and concluding technical issues on the Recovery and Sustainability Plan.

"In the field of corruption, the fight is difficult - in reality we do not have a working prosecutor's office and the steps are slower," he said. He also pointed to the strong opposition the government has met in its work in the public interest. "We are glad that the change is coming, albeit in smaller steps than we want, but it goes in the right direction," concluded Kiril Petkov.
