ATHENS (Reuters) -Bulgaria has one month of gasoline supplies left as it braces for the start of U.S. sanctions on Russia’s Lukoil, which owns the country’s largest oil refinery and most storage and pipeline infrastructure, the chairman of the state reserves agency said on Tuesday.

The U.S. and Britain last month imposed sanctions on Lukoil and Rosneft, Russia’s two biggest oil companies, over Moscow’s war in Ukraine, threatening their operations that still sprawl across Europe.

The U.S. sanctions, which are scheduled to begin on November 21, have raised concerns about fuel supplies ahead of winter in Bulgaria, where Lukoil runs the Burgas refinery, a key part of the company’s foreign business empire, and hundreds of petrol stations.
