Bulgaria has gas supplies until 31 December. They are secured at competitive prices and no crisis is expected in the sector until the end of 2022, interim Energy Minister Rosen Hristov said. 

At a hearing in the National Assembly on the logistics of securing gas supplies, he said efforts were being made in several directions. His words made it clear that at the end of the month there will be information on LNG supplies for next year. In the meantime, negotiations are underway with Italy and France to secure slots at which to offload gas purchased from our country.
