It is not right to send the National Recovery and Resilience plan to Brussels in the last days of work of the caretaker cabinet, said the Deputy Prime Minister for EU Funds Management Atanas Pekanov. On Facebook, answering citizens' questions to the Council of Ministers, Pekanov explained that the EU has signaled that it expects the plan to be submitted by a regular government so that it will not be revised again by the next cabinet.
According to the Deputy Prime Minister, in the previous version of the plan there were "not enough measures and reforms in the field of the rule of law". There were only funds set aside under the Transport programme for the Sofia subway, but there was no money earmarked for the development of the other cities in the country.
