The US and Bulgaria have renewed the 2014 Memorandum of Understanding for the protection of Bulgaria’s cultural heritage. The document was signed by US Ambassador Eric Rubin and Bulgarian Minister of Culture Boil Banov.
The agreement, which provides for import restrictions on certain categories of cultural property from Bulgaria, enables both countries to collaborate to reduce the looting and trafficking of these antiquities, and encourages the increased exchange of Bulgarian antiquities for cultural, educational, and scientific purposes.
Since 2002, the US Embassy in Sofia has spent more than $1.1 million dollars (1.8 million leva) on preserving and protecting some of Bulgaria’s most historic and endangered cultural sites.
