“The idea of pumping money from the budget into the economy is absurd. That is only going to boost inflation.

He is categorically against any increase of the minimum wage because “that is something that is decided politically, but is paid for by businesses”. Bulgaria is moving away from the Eurozone and will most likely join it in 2026-2027.
