Ananiev said that large investors are interested in building such hubs but they also want these to be located close to a railway connection and highways and if there is an airport – that’s a bonus Gorna Oryahovitsa can be such a hub for integrating all types of transport The construction of an intermodal terminal in Gorna Oryahovitsa was a project included in one of the initial versions of the country’s Recovery Plan and Ruse was chosen as the location for its construction Bulgaria was unable to implement the project as it turned out that the construction would be too expensive The Bulgarian Ministry of Transport is looking for other European sources of funding Bulgaria's entry into the Schengen area will be "like a breath of fresh air," commented Nikolay Rashkov representative of the Union of International Carriers in Brussels and member of the European Commission's transport expert group He spoke about a study made at the beginning of the year which showed that at the three border points - near Vidin Ruse and Kulata - there are about 50-60 thousand crossings per month there has been a double increase in cars from third countries which created additional congestion at the borders The average delay at Vidin was 18 hours per car which is very unprofessional for a border between two European countries," he pointed out He added that the huge lines of trucks are due to increased checks for those entering from third countries as well as the lack of good coordination between Bulgarian and foreign inspection bodies Rashkov added that the losses to the Bulgarian economy from this whole situation in just one year are about half a billion euros It is important to hear the exact date for our entry and what the verification procedure will be." Asked how the automotive industry will maintain its competitive advantage after Bulgaria's accession to Schengen Pimk Holding CEO Vasil Lyaskov commented that competition can refine the market and that the lack of it "leads to arbitrariness and the quality of service for people declines." He emphasized the need to develop infrastructure so that the country can truly feel the positive effect of accession to the Schengen area This summer we had a situation when trucks were stuck in Vidin for 36 hours.” The presence of good infrastructure would allow for greater deployment of intermodality and multimodality He noted that although these concepts are well-established in Western Europe the lack of adequate infrastructure in Bulgaria hinders their implementation He explained that instead of using Bulgarian ports and terminals large flows of cargo are redirected to ports in Romania and Turkey Companies prefer the stability and efficiency of existing infrastructure in these countries," he added Bulgaria is not perceived as a strategic hub The average customs processing time in Hungary is 24 hours while in Bulgaria this process is significantly slower," said Lyaskov The railway infrastructure also remains a serious problem Lyaskov stressed that the current state of railway connections and train stations in Bulgaria does not meet modern standards passing through Bulgaria is like traveling by cart - from the Turkish border to the Serbian one it takes up to 48 hours and the wait at the borders itself is between 24 and 48 hours a similar distance is covered in 12-16 hours According to Deputy Transport Minister Zhivko Petrov multimodality is a way of organizing transportation and in order to have this 3 factors are needed - a regulatory framework but "we have a problem in implementing the regulatory framework." and the national administration needs to gain the conviction that it plays on the same side as the business sector Petrov added that there is also something to be done in terms of infrastructure The Deputy Minister admitted that in railway transport “we do not have even one complete line” We need to have one route ready before we start another geopolitical events have brought into focus the so-called "middle corridor" a transport connection between Europe and Asia via the Black Sea The Deputy Minister pointed out that Bulgarian ports have the potential to develop and take on more cargo and stated that "we are lagging behind Constanta which is almost 100% full." He explained that while the port of Burgas is making progress and has been developing well in recent years even if it has sufficient capacity and space This is the moment when we need to hurry up so as not to be bypassed," the deputy minister emphasized There is no way Bulgaria can be a regional hub without aviation founder and manager of the Bulgarian Aviation Industry Association (BAIA) and he called for small regional airports not to be converted into solar parks companies like Amazon and DHL have already overburdened Leipzig Airport and are starting to look for new bases Ivandzhikov is of the opinion that small airports should be given a concession so that they can become cargo hubs He cited numerous examples from the world and emphasized the need for modern infrastructure in order for Bulgaria to take its place on the global logistics map Ivandzhikov pointed out that e-commerce has significantly increased the demand for cargo aviation services Bulgaria already has an airline with a Boeing 747 that operates cargo flights from China to our country and from here the cargo continues to Europe He warned that cargo flow from China is decreasing due to geopolitical and economic changes the cargo flow from Vietnam and other Asian countries was increasing “Last month I visited China and Vietnam and saw great interest in Bulgaria as a possible logistics hub,” he added Ivandzhikov mentioned that in talks with representatives of logistics associations in Asia the construction of a brand-new airport with a cargo terminal in the region is being discussed the better chance we have of attracting these investments,” he stressed.One of the most serious problems that Ivandzhikov identified is the lack of appropriate infrastructure for handling large cargo aircraft but there is no equipment for its effective unloading the situation is even more difficult - they are simply not prepared for such operations," he said this leads to a redirection of cargo flows to Romania and other neighboring countries There is a need for a zone where cargo can move directly from a plane to a train or truck This will not only attract investments but will also bring huge revenues for the state from customs duties Ivandzhikov reminded that Bulgaria has already missed the opportunity to establish itself as a passenger aviation hub Back in the day the now-defunct national carrier Balkan had 52 aircraft Bulgaria lost its position and traffic went to Turkey Bulgaria risks repeating the same mistake with cargo transport the future lies in innovations such as cargo drones and unmanned aircraft He commented that major manufacturers such as Boeing and Airbus are already developing projects for unmanned cargo aircraft that will connect Europe and the United States companies like Dronamics are also advancing with similar technologies but regulations are significantly slowing down the process," he noted drones will first be used in limited areas - over deserts Bulgaria should invest in infrastructure for vertiports - places for drone landings and take-offs The Bulgarian Cabinet has approved a procedure for offering on concession the currently inactive passenger airport of Gorna Oryahovitsa located in the very center of Northern Bulgaria The goal of the government is to find a concessionaire that would help attract passenger and freight traffic and will invest in the infrastructure and modernization of the airport the Gorna Oryahovitsa Airport has not served regular passenger flights but only freight flights and occasional charter flights In a similar effort to develop Bulgaria's airports, in February 2011, the Cabinet started procedures for finding private operators of the cargo terminal of the southern Plovdiv Airport and of the civilian airport Shtraklevo near the Danube city of Ruse We need your support so Novinite.com can keep delivering news and information about Bulgaria the city of Rakovski had the honor of hosting Pope Francis during his visit to Bulgaria Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport and Communications announced that a concession procedure for Plovdiv Airport will soon be initiated A 9-year-old girl has died at a school in Veliko Tarnovo and an investigation is underway to determine the cause of death In celebration of the upcoming Christmas and New Year holidays Bulgarian State Railways (BDZ) is offering a special festive journey for train enthusiasts a specialized operation aimed at curbing vote-buying is currently underway all retailers in Bulgaria will be required to display prices in both leva and euros a major British tour operator specializing in holidays to Bulgaria has halted all its operations effective April 24 Wage growth in Bulgaria is projected at 9.3 percent for 2025 a 15.4 percent rise in the minimum wage since January The World Bank has revised down its forecast for Bulgaria’s economic growth in 2025 Bulgaria is approaching the final stages of preparation for transitioning card payments from the national currency Minister of Economy and Industry Petar Dilov held a meeting with Susan Falatko the Charge d'Affaires at the US Embassy in Bulgaria An exhibition titled Nude Body and Erotica was opened at the Art Gallery in Gorna Oryahovitsa presenting 46 works by famous Bulgarian artists of several generations the Municipality said in a press release on Monday The paintings are part of the personal collection of Dr Plamen Pachev International Economic Relations Professor at the Southwestern University in Blagoevgrad It consists of over 150 works by established Bulgarian artists of different generations and is constantly supplemented The display includes works by Vladimir Dimitrov -

the death of a prematurely born baby which caused a scandal last week "This is an extremely unpleasant case which casts a shadow on the maternity ward and the entire hospital We used to be proud of this ward because the conditions there are very good and it serves over 100 000 people from six municipalities with 637 so far this year," the Mayor of Gorna Oryahovitsa Yordan Mihtiev commented as cited by BGNES> The municipal council voted by a margin of only 2 votes to keep Kozhuharov as head of the hospital The municipality expects the results from the investigation into the case of the competent authorities about whether the doctors are guilty or not "The language used on the tapes is extremely unpleasant and now this scandal will certainly affect it negatively The doctors and the patient are depressed and silent The entire environment is depressing," the mayor explained chief secretary of the Bulgarian Doctors' Union took the side of the doctors in the dispute of whether the prematurely born baby even had a heartbeat He insisted that the authorities should be talking about an abortion rather than a childbirth There is a dispute of whether the fetus qualifies as a baby whether it was born in the 21st or the 23 week Lenkov believes that if the baby was born in a specialized clinic with all latest top-notch equipment that this is possible in only two places in Northern Bulgaria – the University Hospital in Pleven He slammed the reform of the healthcare and hospital system claiming that not every hospital in the country has enough funds and that many see their money run out on the 20th day of each month He said Interior Minister Tsvetanov should resign if it is proven that the doctors in Gorna Oryahovitsa did all they could to save the life of the baby with the means at their disposal and that the attack against the hospital is motivated by a desire to close it down The number of young doctors choosing to stay in Bulgaria after completing their

this is a virus that does not affect young people and I am a person who plays sports and almost does not get sick no one can say for sure that the virus will pass them by this disease is very insidious," says the priest He recalls that the symptoms of the coronavirus infection suddenly struck him Most unexpectedly he got severe muscle aches Then the young priest isolated himself and sought medical attention "The first thing I did was to quarantine myself so that I can take responsibility for other people until at one point I felt shortness of breath and then I went to take an X-ray of my chest It really turned out that I had bilateral pneumonia and I had to be hospitalized."

care unit The other person next to me also had difficulty breathing coughed very hard and could not get up because he was dizzy There was a woman who had begun to improve And at some point you do not know what effects this virus will bring to your body This disease destroys you not only physically so it is important to maintain one’s mental health Now Father Zoran is recovering from a severe coronavirus infection at home his three children also contracted the disease His wife is also feeling good as she is about to give birth to their fourth child at any moment we look to the future with hope and a spark that something good is coming," says the priest "This ordeal will pass and we must be aware that we will all go this way and that it is not something we must somehow deny I have many acquaintances who have gone through the disease – some in a more severe form The most important thing is to keep calm and have faith to remain responsible to each other and not to enter into conspiracy theories that this is all a scam” Father Zoran will return to the Church of the Holy Three Saints in Gorna Oryahovitsa There the work has not been interrupted for a single day a hundred
