The Bulgarian Foreign Ministry is posting additional staff at consular missions to cope with the tourist industry’s increasing needs of foreign workers during the summer season, reads the Foreign Ministry’s position regarding an interview given by Veselin Nalbantov, Deputy Chairman of the Bulgarian Hotel and Restaurant Association to the Bulgarian National Radio.

“Regarding the allegations of corruption practices in Delhi, we believe that if Mr. Nalbantov has credible information of instances of corruption at Bulgarian consular missions, he should duly refer the matter to the competent structures in the country,” the Foreign Ministry says, and adds that no reports regarding such practices by consular staff have been submitted to the ministry
