Bulgaria’s National Assembly approved at first reading the proposal for recalculation of the pensions granted until the end of December 2017, informed the reporter of the Bulgarian National Radio Violeta Ashikova. 127 MPs voted in favor and 1 MP voted against. The proposal of the Bulgarian Socialist Party reads that pensions be recalculated after July 1, 2021.
The Bulgarian Socialist Party insisted that the Parliament voted the proposal at a second reading as well, but the Speaker of Bulgaria’s National Assembly Iva Miteva refused to put the proposal to vote. GERB called the proposed amendments “political propaganda on the eve of new elections”.
