In November the price of natural gas is expected to fall once again, said Minister of Economy in the caretaker cabinet Nikola Stoyanov. He pointed out that the volumes of gas for the winter period have been provided. Unless there is an unexpected turn of events in Ukraine, Minister Stoyanov says that the inflation peak has passed, and he is not expecting the prices of fuels and of electricity to rise.

The caretaker government is making efforts towards an economic leap in the country by attracting investors. Regarding the new parliament, Minister Stoyanov stated that “the country needs a government with a longer time horizon”. If the parliament approves such a decision, Bulgaria could supply Ukraine with weapons, he stated. “I don’t know what kind of weapons reach Ukraine, we are not exporting any directly,” Nikola Stoyanov said.
