The Minister further said that when all hopes to revive the mill die, the gas supply to "Kremikovtzi" will be fully halted.

Dimitrov spoke to reporters upon conclusion of his meeting with the Minister of State of Turkey, Kursad Tuzmen.

Regarding the "Belene" Nuclear Power Plant project, the Minister said the financing structure for the project would not be ready anytime soon and will fall on Bulgaria's next Cabinet.

Turkish State Minister Tuzmen will be in Bulgaria for three days. Tuzmen will meet with four Bulgarian ministers and Turkish businessmen working Bulgaria.
