ЕС поддержал болгарский налог на транзит газа.
Тем более, что этот налог может пойти в бюджет не Болгарии, а ЕС.
Газпром заявлял, что поставки продолжатся, то есть вероятно возьмет налог на себя, но это неточно.

Bulgaria has ‘carte blanche’ on using Russian gas tax cash, says EU Commission
Bulgaria can decide how it will be using the revenues it makes from the €10/MWh tax on Russian gas imports transiting through Bulgarian territory, the European Commission confirmed on Monday.
Last Thursday, Bulgarian Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov announced that consultations are underway between Bulgaria and the European Commission on the energy tax of €10/MWh introduced on 13 October on Russian gas imports that transit through Bulgarian territory.
“The fees charged by Bulgaria for the transit of Russian gas to Serbia, Hungary and North Macedonia are a national measure, and therefore, it is up to Bulgaria to decide where to allocate the revenues,” Commission spokesperson Tim McPhie told the press on Monday.
Bulgaria expects €1.2-1.5 billion in annual revenue from the new tax, which Denkov said could go directly into the EU budget.
