Prime Minister Kiril Petkov described his recent visit to Skopje as "terribly late". That is how he responded to President Rumen Radev's criticism that the visit was a hasty decision. "I would not have delayed this visit as we do not want the Balkans to remain the poorest, most corrupt, most uncoordinated place in the European Union. That is why the approach must be changed," the prime minister said.

Speaking about the change of the Bulgargaz management and the words of the President that when such changes are carried out, it must be ensured that there would be no private intermediaries in the supply of natural gas, the Prime Minister said that this was the right decision and that there was no intention of returning to old management practices.
