We are not faced with the dilemma whether to support the European Union's 11th package of sanctions against Russia. Bulgaria will support the sanctions as usual. The 11th package of sanctions is aimed at limiting the possibilities of circumventing the existing sanctions, caretaker Minister of Economy Nikola Stoyanov said in Parliament.
According to the analysis of the Ministry of Economy, the impact on the Bulgarian economy of the previous sanctions is insignificant. In 2022, Bulgaria's exports to Russia have decreased by less than 2%. Over the past 10 years, Bulgaria's trade with Russia has been around 5-6% of its total trade. In Minister Stoyanov’s words, Bulgaria should prepare to limit fuel imports from Russia, because the EU derogation expires at the end of 2024.
