At a meeting in New York with the Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs James O'Brien, Bulgarian caretaker Minister of Foreign Affairs Ivan Kondov raised the issue of Bulgaria's inclusion in the United States Visa Waiver Program.
The lifting of visas will not only demonstrate the strategic nature of relations between the two countries, but will also bring significant benefits to the economy, security and tourism, the minister pointed out.
