Bulgarian MP Exposes Alleged Corruption in 4 Billion BGN Botash Deal

Bulgarian MP Stella Nikolova raises concerns about a 4 billion BGN contract with a Turkish company, Botash. Nikolova, a member of the "We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria" party, claims the deal lacks transparency and is potentially corrupt. She states, "Four billion levs will be paid by the Bulgarian people to a Turkish company, because the caretaker government acted corruptly." Nikolova calls for an investigation into the deal and greater accountability from the government. The contract's long-term implications for Bulgaria's energy sector remain uncertain.
