Bulgarian Delegation Headed by PM Arrives in Tunisia

Bulgarian PM Boyko Borisov, together with a high-ranking delegation, has arrived Sunday on an official visit to Tunisia.

His program includes meeting Tunisian PM Hamadi Jebali, President Moncef Marzouki and Constituent Assembly Speaker Mustapha Ben Jaafar.

The Bulgarian delegation will also meet the Bulgarian expat community in Tunisia, and will also participate in a Bulgarian-Tunisian business forum.

Cabinet ministers in the delegation will include Foreign Affairs Minister Nikolay Mladenov, Minister of Energy and Economy Traicho Traikov, and Minister of Education Sergey Ignatov.

Minister Mladenov was in Tunisia Friday for the "Friends of Syria" conference that discussed ongoing bloodshed in the country.

In July 2011 Mladenov was again in Tunisia, to get to know on the ground developments after the January regime change in the country.

He sent the first democratically elected Bulgarian President Zhelyu Zhelev as a special envoy for the October 2011 free elections in Tunisia.
