This country may lose over a billion euros of European funding due to unadopted changes to the Recovery and Resilience Plan, the new chapter to it and the updated road map for climate neutrality, which were not accepted by the parliament, caretaker Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Lyudmila Petkova said.
"You can see what a loss it is, because we are still on the second payment and we cannot submit a request for a third or a fourth, if we do not fulfil two or three of the investments. According to the second payment, we may have to return part of the funds that we received from the first payment", the minister said.
The changes to the plan must be sent by the middle of October this year in order for the European Commission to accept them. In case of a possible loss of funding, the funds are not calculated in the draft budget for next year, Lyudmila Petkova said. She admitted that this could jeopardize the criteria for fiscal stability, necessary for the adoption of the euro.
