Bulgaria Fighting Back

Bulgaria isn't letting the fact that Russia and Ukraine essentially stopped their natural gas supplies just slip away. Here's some news from Radio Bulgaria:

Economy and Energy Minister Petar Dimitrov has officially handed a letter to the Deputy Chairman of Gazprom Board of Directors Alexander Medvedev, spelling out Bulgaria’s main demands for compensations in the wake of the cut-off of gas supplies. The letter outlines three possible ways for Bulgaria to receive compensations for the losses that it suffered during the gas crisis – direct payments, supply of gas at cut-down prices and access to Russia’s gas transiting system for the delivery of gas that Bulgaria buys by third countries.
