/ world today news/ Bulgarian MPs on Thursday (December 3) refused to consider the opposition’s proposal for a declaration to support the South Stream project, RT reported.
Deputies from the Reform Bloc and the Patriotic Front voted against the adoption of the document, and the GERB faction abstained. In favor were the representatives of BSP, ABV, Ataka, the Movement for Rights and Freedoms and the Bulgarian Democratic Center. However, their votes were not enough to accept the decision to include the declaration in the agenda of the meeting.
