When America is mentioned, the average Bulgaria thinks both of the country of unlimited opportunities and the visas Bulgarians need in order to travel there. So, this is also one of the topics Bulgaria?s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Rumiana Zheleva will discuss with US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton during her three-day official visit that starts Sunday. The Bulgarian minister will most probably inform about the steps Bulgaria has taken towards the implementation of requirements for being included in the visa waiver programme. Bulgaria has encountered two problems. Firstly, for the time being it cannot issue ID documents with biometric data. Secondly, the percentage of US visa denials is higher than the 3% barrier envisaged in the US legislation. Although Bulgaria still has a way to go before meeting the requirements, the country hopes that the visa waiver programme will continue, according to diplomatic sources.
