On January 14, Maritsa-Iztok Mines will stage an indefinite strike, announced the Strike Committee. If things come down to that, the daily losses of the largest domestic coal-mining company will amount to about BGN 1.8 mln, estimated the Management of Maritsa Iztok Mines. The defaults to be paid (in case of a strike) to the thermoelectric power plants will be close to BGN 1 mln per day. “I have not withdrawn my signature from the agreement as the syndicates claim. I am ready to continue the negotiations,” stated the company’s CEO Evgeni Stoykov.
