"The USA is a symbol of democracy and independence, and you have proven yourself in the most competitive environment possible. We are trying to create conditions so that whoever wishes to return to Bulgaria feels good there," he added. 

The Bulgarian ambassador to the USA, Georgi Panayotov, noted that this year the World Bank for the first time included Bulgaria in the list of the richest countries in the world, reports BTA.
