Former Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said he was proud to have kept Bulgaria on the gas map with the Balkan Stream project.
Putin’s project is to supply gas to Europe through Turkey.
The pipeline surrounds Ukraine and this gave Putin the opportunity to attack it.

Borisov pointed out that Donald Trump personally told him to do it a few years ago, when Borisov was visiting the White House.

The only profitable enterprise in Bulgaria is „Balkan Stream“, he commented to journalists on the sidelines of the Party House, News.bg reported.

Borisov described as nonsense the claims that he hid the road map for „Balkan Stream“.

„For gas to flow to Turkey, Greece, to Ukraine, to Serbia, to Hungary, to North Macedonia, it is due only thanks to us.

In the White House, the President of the USA told me – I encourage you to make the Balkan Stream“, said Boyko Borisov categorically.

A few days ago, the lost „Road Map“ for the construction of „Turkish Stream“ through Bulgaria appeared from a hacked email by Ukrainian hackers, provided to the group Bg Elves and „Boets“.

The data leak is from the email hacked by Ukrainians of Yevgeny Zobnin, an associate of Russian MP Alexander Babakov. Babakov’s mail was also hacked and some of the leaked documents from it were published in September last year. Then the Sofia City Prosecutor’s Office (SGP) announced that it was checking public data on „unregulated contracting“ for the contractors of the construction of the Turkish Stream gas pipeline. There are no data on the results of the inspection.

There is no confirmation that the document is authentic, but the data from it coincides with already known facts. And they are that already in 2017, long before the official construction procedures, everything was controlled by Russia.

We recall the so-called „Balkan Stream“ is the continuation of „Turkish Stream“ through Bulgaria and transits Russian gas to Serbia and Hungary from 2021. With it, Russia bypassed Ukraine, from where gas passed to Southern and Eastern Europe.

The pipeline for the transfer of Russian gas through the Black Sea – Turkey and through Bulgaria to Central Europe was criticized because of the extraordinary efforts, the speed of construction, as well as the conditions for our country. After the end of the mandate of the last GERB government, not a single minister, official or regular, has opened the documentation for „Balkan Stream“ – the so-called. project roadmap.

In a publication dedicated to Boyko Borisov’s agreement with Moscow, „Capital“ also states that the importance of „Turkish Stream“ through Bulgaria has no particular economic and strategic benefit. And the country cannot use the gas through the pipeline, as Gazprom has blocked all its capacity until 2039
