US embassy cable - 05SOFIA1568

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

We delivered reftel talking points to Americas Directorate 
Head Dr. Valeri Yotov of the Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign 
Affairs on September 9th.  Yotov agreed that the spread of 
avian influenza is a serious issue and said the GOB will 
support international efforts to control its spread. Dr. 
Yotov offered to review the non paper and respond shortly. In 
a previous meeting last week, Veselin Delchev, director for 
EU Integration and International Cooperation at the Ministry 
of Health, said the GOB was closely monitoring any possible 
incidences of avian influenza in the country. Agricultural 
attache will also deliver the talking points to the 
Agriculture Ministry.
