The DB party group also proposed legal texts to boost competition, after GERB reported that fuel prices had jumped 37% in the past six months and BGN 10m in revenue from these sales get diverted to offshore accounts every day.
They pointed out that the Bulgarian oil refinery does not use the American Brent variety, but Ural oil, whose price per barrel is 78 dollars.
