Bulgaria’s Premier Nikolay Denkov invited Korean businesses to the three coal regions most affected by the energy transition. Stara Zagora, Kyustendil and Pernik offer good infrastructure, are close to the capital city and need new investment and new jobs to replace the jobs that will be lost when the coal-fired power plants and mines close, Nikolay Denkov told South Korea’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Park Jin. Premier Denkov met with Park Jin within the frameworks of the 18th edition of the Bled Strategic Forum in Slovenia.

South Korea's Minister of Foreign Affairs promised assistance to further develop these ideas.
