Restrictive measures will prevent the holding of important economic events: Bulgarian Industrial Association

The Bulgarian Industrial Association is demanding that Health Minister Kostadin Angelov reconsider the new restrictive anti-coronavirus measures which come into effect on 29 October.

In a letter addressed to Minister Angelov the organization warns that the restriction, allowing no more than 30 attendees at an event, halts the work of conference and exhibition centres. For example, a number of traditional expositions scheduled for 4-7 November will not be held under the new restrictions, even though a lot of money has been invested in them, and this will have “colossal” economic consequences, the Bulgarian Industrial Association warns.
