Bulgaria would not sign a new agreement with Gazprom for deliveries of natural gas because the Russian state-owned company has proved to be an unreliable partner, Bulgarian Deputy Prime Minister Assen Vassilev said in the budget committee of the National Assembly in Sofia.
The current contract of Bulgaria with Gazprom expires at the end of December. However, Russian natural gas is not currently delivered to Bulgaria because the Russian company had unilaterally stopped fulfilling its obligations under the agreement.
"Gazprom decides to accept payments from some countries but not from others," the Bulgarian minister said and added that Bulgaria was currently buying Azeri and American gas, reporter Marta Mladenova informed.
