Until the comment [#85] from “gogo2011”:
The economy, you fool. Kozloduy NPP is Russian and produces 40% of electricity. The reactors must be maintained by certified experts, and they are already old, their service life must be extended. Why shouldn’t Russia do a demo and punish Bulgaria – the EU’s donkey – by stopping support and denying certification? For Moscow, this is nothing and nothing, but for Europe it will be ostentatious. As happened with the gas. We were stopped and all Europeans, except the British and a Baltic tiger, pay in rubles.
Unless we stop maintaining the plant and it explodes. This is also an opportunity looking at the comments here – the most likely scenario. The technical genius of the Bulgarian has already ruined Belmeken-Sestrimo without a finger of the Russians.
