Bulgaria will pay a high price for announcing Hezbollah may have been involved in last year's terror attack in Burgas, the leader of the country's nationalist party has warned.

"Bulgaria's government is playing a dangerous game and I am absolutely sure this is a mistake and we all will pay a high price for it," Volen Siderov told the state TV channel on Friday morning.

"The most important thing is that by pointing your finger at Hezbollah, which is the leading government player in Lebanon, you point your finger at the whole country," he said.

The statement came in response to the announcement made by Bulgarian Interior Minister Tsvetan Tsvetanov that two persons from pro-Iranian Lebanese group Hezbollah's military wing are behind the Burgas Bus Bombing.

The report of the Bulgarian government was presented to the Consultative National Security Council, an inter-institutional government body, earlier this week.
