A #Czechia #Bulgaria collab #NEIPA with Talus and Sabro hops.

I was hoping to abstain from NEIPAs, but well...an interesting brew for sure.

Zajímavá neipička, doporučuju. Mají v Basecampu.

Did you know that in #Bulgarian, when your mother is addressing you, she can call you "mommy"? Or when your grandma is addressing you, she can call you "granny"?

E.g. you're going out and your mom says "Where are you going, mommy?"

Hey there, everyone! Time for a fresh #introduction! I'm Todor, a #Bulgarian #animator and #motiondesigner. My artistic journey kicked off way back in kindergarten, and I've been doodling away since. My craft took a turn in 2009, when I created my very first animation in 3D. 1/4

I'm watching #Manifest and there's now some guy speaking in #Bulgarian 😄

Surprised, yesterday, to find a #Bulgarian coin in my pocket. Did not even remember getting any change. Don't think I've seen one before. EU, not Eurozone, latin characters.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr #Zelenskyy savaged his #Bulgarian counterpart Rumen Radev in a bruising televised exchange in #Sofia on Thursday, in which he opened up with both barrels against Radev’s opposition to arming #Ukraine.

The flustered Bulgarian president, visibly taken aback by Zelenskyy’s indignation, asked TV cameras to leave the room in the presidential palace where the meeting was being filmed.

the #Bulgarian caretaker government actually allowed #Lukoil to to continue exports of Bulgarian #oil after 5. Dec.
But this was slapped down by the #EU So what the EU now said is, Lukoil cannot export oil and oil products made by this #refinery, which works with #Russian oil only. It cannot export them to the EU or anyone else in the world except to #Ukraine.

' So these things started to unravel and investigative journalism sites…started publishing materials, about Lukoil. And it turns out that #Lukoil is actually using one of its … companies registered in Switzerland, actually to syphon off that's what the #Bulgarian media say, syphoned off all these profits made by the sale of oil and #oil products in #Bulgaria, to Switzerland, and then all the taxes being paid in #Russia. So the #Bulgarian taxpayer doesn't benefit from… the presence of Lukoil. '

'When you look at an enormous company like #Lukoil , the #Russian energy giant, it's one of the biggest companies in #bulgaria
Lukoil owns the #Neftochim oil refinery in the coastal city of #Burgas on the Black Sea. A #Bulgarian lawmaker once called it “the only #refinery on the planet that’s losing money”.
Media reports started to appear about Lukoil, it has profits of billions of Bulgarian leva and despite that, it hasn't been paying for quite many years…corporate tax in Bulgaria...

'There was a report in September 2022 by the #Bulgarian National Security Agency, and it directly accused #Russia of increasing its #intelligence activities in #Bulgaria. Even of #interfering in #elections, interfering in #media using agents of influence, both in government institutions, in security services, and in the media, and this is this is something that has been officially stated, it was the only country mentioned in this report as having an anti Bulgarian activity.'

'back in 2016 there was this idea of creating a #flotilla of #NATO countries in the #BlackSea to counter #Russian #Navy influence in the region or to act as a deterrent. And the then PM Boyko #Borissov was adamant that he will not send ships. He said I do not expect #Russia to attack us. The Black Sea is should be an area for tourism, for economic projects, it should be an area of sun and happiness. And I'm not going to send #Bulgarian ships to against Russian ships… '
