Seven cities speak out against Budget 2027: "No to impoverishment!"
Published
Seven Bulgarian cities have openly stated their position against the draft state budget for 2027. Their discontent is expressed through the slogan "No to impoverishment!", which reflects their main concern: that the budget may worsen people's financial situation.
According to a publication on News.bg, the protest is aimed at the budget proposals that affect the municipalities. The cities want to be heard during the discussion of the document. The state budget determines how much funding municipalities receive for schools, kindergartens, transport and other local services, so the decisions of the central government have a direct impact on residents' lives.
The publication does not give details of all the cities' demands, nor specific amounts or measures. It is therefore not clear exactly what changes their representatives are asking for. It is also possible that the cities have proposed their own solutions, but this information is not contained in the available material.
Budget 2027 is still being prepared and discussed. Citizens and local authorities are following its development, as the final version will determine the financial capacity of the state and the municipalities in the coming year.
