The company Plovdiv Pozharnikar Tovaren Avtomobil Stroitel ("Plovdiv Firefighter Lorry Builder") has announced that it is facing bankruptcy within the next three to six months. The company's owners are losing money, and have reportedly sought to sell PPTAS to Rennault or Bulgarian bus-manufacturing company "Chavdar".
Quoted
The Bulgarian Navy announced that they have completed the successful sale of both the Slivnitsa and Hristo Botev class torpedo boats, with the former going to China, the latter to Turkey. The Navy spokesman acknowledged the Mexican Navy had bid on the Slivnitsa-class as well, but refused to comment regarding rumors that the Mexican government threatened Bulgaria with "consequences" if Bulgaria accepted the Chinese bid. The spokesman then scratched his nose with his middle finger.

Hu? I just laughed at the really high Chinese bid. Any threats were just in jest, and I don't remember any.

Are they crazy? You should consider the political implications of selling to the Chinese.

He, that's not a threat at least not from Mexico. Mexico doesn't care if Bulgaria sells to China. But other nations might. Like say Iberia...

Bulgaria does not bow to threats, sir! At least, not from a second-rank power across the western ocean.
