The European Commission (EC) is en route to stopping two more programme funds for Bulgaria – for transport and competitiveness, said Bulgaria's President Rosen Plevneliev. 

“This is a catastrophe for the country in its hardest moments,” Plevneliev said, quoted by Mediapool.bg.

According to the BTA wire service, Plevneliev said he got the information from his own sources in the EC.

"I learn from the EC, that the transport and competitiveness funds will also be stopped," Plevneliev said in his statement on the calling of the Consultative Council for National Security next Tuesday.

Recently the EC suspended the payments on the regional development and environment programmes.
