Cargo vehicles formed nearly fifteen kilometer-long queue at Kapitan Andreevo border checkpoint at the Bulgaria-Turkey border. The TIR drivers have been complaining about the lack of any living conditions. According to standards, the cargo documents should be processed for a maximum of 6 minutes. However, some measuring tools were damaged, thus making the stay of the TIR trucks at the border longer, Director of Bulgaria’s Customs Agency Rozalia Dimitrova announced. On Monday 10 portable toilets were placed near Kapitan Andreevo border checkpoint after the interferance of Bulgaria's Ombudsman Maya Manolova in that problem.
