Skopje attacks: Bulgaria will rob Macedonia if the railway to Sofia is built  - 1

The construction of the railway line to Bulgaria means the robbery of Macedonia, which was planned by the previous government of the Social Democratic Union /SDSM/ and the Democratic Union for Integration /DSI/.

This was said by the MP from the ruling party of Prime Minister Hristiyan Mitskoski Brane Petrushevski, reported BGNES. "This is robbery of the state. 560 million euros for a railway line to Bulgaria and a tunnel that has no exit. This was the plan of SDSM and DSI. For them, economic benefit does not matter. They are only interested in orders," Brane Petrushevski also said. According to him, "the country is in disgrace, looted and with unplanned projects".

Several times he repeated that "the costs of this railway connection are unjustified and that Bulgaria did not even have a project for this line". "One kilometer of this line will cost 23 million euros. It should have 22 tunnels, and the last one has no exit, because the Bulgarian side doesn't even have a project for it," said the MP for Mitskoski.
