The tobacco production has to be considered as an economy

For years Bulgaria is trying to continue the opportunity of paying government donations for section "tobacco" and after 2009 - said deputy chief of the Commission of agriculture and forests Iunal Tasim. During the time of a crisis, every production that is produced in Bulgaria helps the economy of the European Union, as well as for Bulgaria, you know that our country is exporting tobacco and tobacco products. As a country we need to encourage the export summarized the deputy from "DPS"

On the other hand there are whole regions in Bulgaria which depend entirely on the tobacco production in other words the question could be seen from a social angle. The question is complex, we can not consider only on the point that the tobacco is harmful or healthy for use. The tobacco production has to be considered as an economy and as a way of living  for many people. - a compact mass of people - added the deputy.

He pointed categorically that not all tobacco producers are part of the electorate of DPS. If all of them were an electorate of DPS we would not have 34 deputies but 50 in this parliament. This is a manipulation which is made with the idea to underestimate the efforts of the DPS for helping the tobacco producers and this section needs help, explained Mr.. Tasim.

At the end of the last year it became clear that the European commission denies to extend the term for the subsidy for the tobacco production. The group of the bigger tobacco manufacturers in the European Union are uniting with the demand to extend their request for extending the term for the subsidies until 2013. Bulgaria is one of these countries.
