What people are saying?

Amb Rachel Galloway Deeply saddened by the news this morning of those who died in the tragic bus accident in Bulgaria. My sincere condolences to family and friends of those who lost their lives and hope for full recovery of the injured.

Christo True, but we don’t know the exact cause yet. I wouldn’t be quick to blame Yanev given that he is an interim PM and that such spending is determined by the parliament (which is simply a caretaker gov. right now).
