Economic experts with criticism of the government because of the plan to introduce the euro in our country. Mika Zaykova described the actions of the cabinet as “complete disgrace”, and according to Stoyan Panchev they are “scandalous”.
“The government’s actions at the moment are outrageous. We have planned to enter the eurozone and be equal to other members of the European Union. However, this is not done secretly, in corners, as they did with the Recovery Plan “, Zaykova commented to NOVA.
“It is done without seeing a public analysis of the BNB. When it comes out, it needs to be commented on, there needs to be a debate. At least he has to go through parliament. It must go through extensive discussion with scientists and experts. This is a fundamental change, after which there is no going back, “Panchev stressed.
He pointed out that it turned out well, that the topic was not considered by the Council of Ministers. “Before you even get to the parliament, let alone the government, you have to go through the analysis. I would say that a referendum should be held. “Official statistics show that 60% of Bulgarians are against our entry into the eurozone,” Panchev said.
“To be done in secret, not to ask the public, not to ask the parliament – means that there is something that is disturbing. The most worrying is the lev-euro exchange rate. We already have one of the highest inflation, this will inflate it even more “, warned Zaikova.
She predicts that inflation in Bulgaria will reach 19-20%. “We have not given up on Russian gas. We gave up cheap Russian gas. Current prices are nothing compared to what awaits us from May 10 onwards. How will the price of gas become lower when there is an intermediary? ”Zaikova asked.
“There is a study of a large American investment bank that came out a month ago. It says that if Europe imposes sanctions or an embargo on Russian oil, there will be an 80% jump in the price of a barrel of oil. That is, it will be about 180 dollars “, Panchev commented.
“There will be no diesel or petrol cheaper than BGN 5-6. 57% of the gas reserves are in Russia, and 48% of the oil is still there. Russia and Saudi Arabia, especially for oil, are the countries with the highest yields. To tear off this thing and remove it – there is nothing to replace it with “, said Zaykova.
