The chairman of the parliamentary committee on healthcare and former minister in the last government of GERB, Kostadin Angelov, has sent a report of the State Agency for National Security to the Prosecutor's Office about unregulated export of medicines, which led to shortage.

He told journalists that the case concerns medicines that are cheaper in this country in comparison to other EU countries. According to the MP, the trade took place with the help of three companies, while the regulations actually serve the interests of traders. Kostadin Angelov accused the former minister of health, Asena Serbezova, from Kiril Petkov's office, that at the beginning of this year she ordered the Bulgarian Drug Agency to change the formula for calculating the shortage.
