The reason for this decision is called the announcements of Non Grata 14 employees of the diploma and consular institutions of Bulgaria in Russia. Tour operators report that the Bulgaria Consulate in Moscow announced them of temporary suspension of receiving documents for visas.

This will relate to tourist trips and real estate owners. The decision is positioned as temporary. But how long this pause will last. Earlier, against the background of the exile of 70 Russian diplomats from Sofia, the aggressor country has stopped issuing tourist visas for Bulgaria citizens.

On June 28, the Deputy Foreign Minister of Bulgaria Irene Dimitrov summoned the Russian Ambassador to the Foreign Ministry and told her that the country was reducing the number of employees of Russian diplomatic missions "to boundaries not exceeding the number of Bulgarian representations in the Russian Federation". The Bulgarian Foreign Ministry expects that Russia will temporarily close its conspiracy in the city of Rus, and Bulgaria in Yekaterinburg.
