“Reserve at the end of March 9.9 billion BGN. Large payments made at the beginning of April: 1.6 billion to BEH for the debt of “Toplofikatsia” and 1.5 billion for the payment of pensions in April. The expected tax revenues in April are BGN 3.9 billion and arrive on the 14th (VAT) and after the 25th (Personal Income Tax and Insurance). Because of this cyclicality, the reserve is always measured towards the end of the month. So at the end of April, expects it to be over BGN 9 billion again.”
This is how the former finance minister Asen Vassilev commented on Facebook the words of the current Lyudmila Petkova, who took office today.
She stated that according to BNB data, the fiscal reserve as of April 8 was BGN 6.689 billion.

“It is hard for me to believe that Mrs. Petkova, who also receives the daily reports from the State Treasure Directorate, does not know these facts. I hope that they will not try to serve us a second series of “the state is bankrupt” and “we will die from the cold,” emphasized Vassilev.
The ministers from the “Glavchev” cabinet took power
