A planned 30km fence at the border
between Bulgaria and Turkey will require
600km razor wire, 12,000 posts, 4,000m³
concrete and 30km chain-link fencing.
The fence was planned last autumn as a
measure against illegal border crossings of
people seeking asylum in Bulgaria.
Discrepancies in the original cost estimates
haveprompted theBulgarianprimeminister,
Plamen Oresharski, to order a full financial
audit of the project. “Each eventual misuse
of money for the construction of the border
fence will be considered marauding,”
ministerofdefenceNaydenov toldBulgaria's
public broadcaster, BNT. “There will be no
compromise.”
According to Naydenov the construction
will be completed this spring. The project
attracted criticism from the EU and the
UN, insisting that the planned measure for
limiting the access of refugees to Bulgaria
violates international law.
