The European Commission will delay cash injections for Bulgaria under the new operative programs due to financial woes, according to unconfirmed reports.
The European Commission fears that the payment of all legitimate bills for this and next year will put its budget in the red, Standard daily reported, citing sources.
Bulgaria is about to receive EUR 7 billion in 2014-2015 to fund already approved projects.
The payments will start no earlier than 2015, the source added.
