I see political intent in the presidential veto of the Mineral Resources Law, said the chairman of the Energy Commission Valentin Nikolov (GERB), quoted by offnews.bg.
“The BSP supported three of the four paragraphs, which the president returned with his veto. At first reading, they fully supported the law, seeing that it was consensual,” added Valentin Nikolov. According to him, if there had been lobbying, the BSP deputies would have voted against it.
With that, Parliament finished its work for the day.
