The State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOKAR) opened an office in Sofia at the end of April. SOKAR's office is the headquarters not only for Bulgaria, but for the whole region, the Ambassador of Azerbaijan to Bulgaria H.E. Huseyn Huseynov said for Euronews Bulgaria.
''If a proposal for the acquisition of the Burgas refinery is sent, SOKAR and the state will consider it. There are possibilities, but there is no specific proposal. There has to be a concrete proposal from Sofia so that we can make an offer", Huseyn Huseynov said. "We have always supported the idea of Bulgaria being both an energy hub and a transport hub", said Ambassador Huseynov. Bulgaria is expected to become a gas distribution point in Europe under the Solidarity Ring contract, Ambassador Huseynov recalled.
