Barr wrote that Bulgaria continued to make steps in strengthening law enforcement institutions, as well as in the fight against corruption and added he was confident that Tsatsarov’s dedication to service of the state and the rule of law would continue in his new position.

The close partnership between the US and Bulgaria would continue under the mandate of the new Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev, Barr added.
