Petkova will not be attending the discussions, with Economy Minister Bozhidar Lukarski heading the delegation.

She has recalled that the Bulgarian National Radio that an agreement between the respective state-owned gas suppliers, Bulgargaz and SOCAR, for the delivery of 1 billion cubic meters a year via  the Interconnector Greece-Bulgaria (IGB).

Construction of IGB, however, is yet to begin.
