Prista Oil, Monbat and related companies leave the Confederation of Entrepreneurs and Industrialists of Bulgaria (CEIBG). This was announced during a meeting of the organization’s management this Wednesday by the industrialist Plamen Bobokov, who together with his brother Atanas are shareholders of these companies. The two are accused, along with former Deputy Minister of the Environment Krassimir Zhivkov and various businessmen, of a plan to bury waste from battery recycling instead of destroying it.
“CEIBG has nothing to do with what it was and for a long time it has had nothing to do with the ‘voice of Bulgarian business’,” argued Bobokov, who is free on bail.
All this serious silence, in the context of everything that happens today with Bulgarian businesses, the open attacks on public and private companies and the repression of businessmen at various levels, in stark contrast to the hysterical appeals of the support organization and thanks to the Government. “All possible and impossible occasions turned CEIBG into an ordinary ‘on call’ casino organization. CEIBG’s takeover is only part of the plan to take over the whole country and apparently successful so far,” said the entrepreneur.
He himself has been a member of the CEIBG board of directors since 2014, and the group companies have been part of the organization for many years.
Back in June, he expressed disappointment that the confederation had not even come away with a “half-mouth” position on the prosecutor’s investigation into Monbat’s waste, and said they were likely to leave the organization.
This is another business that is withdrawn from CEIBG after the Bulgarian Oil and Gas Association did the same last year because the organization supported new rules for the trade of petroleum products initiated by the government, without coordinating the position of the association of the branch. In 2015, the large US energy companies AES and ContourGlobal left in scandalousness over the idea launched by the organization to nationalize their business in Bulgaria. Then the American Chamber of Commerce lost its trust in CEIBG.
Under the leadership of Kiril Domuschiev, who headed CEIBG in 2014, the organization has become an “ally” of the Boyko Borissov government, often taking positions in their favor and supporting controversial intentions and decisions. In turn, the cabinet meets all the requirements of the confederation, especially in the field of energy
