Acting Minister of Economy and Industry Nikola Stoyanov will propose measures in support of small and medium-sized enterprises to be extended until the end of the year and discounts for citizens in the price of fuel to be discontinued as they are getting cheaper, Mr Stoyanov told the private TV channel bTV.   

Consumers in Bulgaria should be encouraged to save energy, as other EU countries do. I congratulate the Minister of Energy for not introducing 2 tariffs for electricity, Stoyanov added. 

"Political instability affects the decisions of foreign investors. We will ask for amendments to the law to encourage investment so that we can develop industrial zones in small towns and create jobs, especially where there are no opportunities," the minister promised.
