Under the title “Bulgarian government investigated over Russia sanctions implementation”, on 1 May, the English-language version of Euractiv quotes a statement by Bulgaria’s Prosecutor’s Office on Friday as Chief Prosecutor Ivan Geshev was on a visit to Moldova and Ukraine. “The Prosecutor’s Office requests information from the Council of Ministers and all ministries and departments participating in the Coordination Group (for Russian sanctions) on specific measures taken, actions and acts issued in connection with the sanctions imposed,” the Prosecutor’s Office announced.
“Even Hungary, which often defends positions in favour of Russia, froze Russian assets worth more than €900 million. In Bulgaria, nearly 300,000 Russians own over 500,000 properties, according to the latest data from the authorities in 2019. In Bulgaria, the National Revenue Agency is in charge of imposing sanctions, though it has not issued a single act imposing sanctions for the past eight years,” Euractiv writes.
