Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borisov has promised to sign a contract with Russia for the construction of the South Stream gas transit pipeline in secret talks, former PM and rightist opposition leader Ivan Kostov claims.
Speaking on Friday, Kostov also warned that the European Commission might sanction Bulgaria financially over Bulgaria's South Stream deals with Russia because at the end of October 2012 the European Parliament and the EU Council made a decision, according to which all energy agreements must be referred to the EC before their signing.
