A visit by Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev to Bulgaria is planned for the beginning of March, as well as a big bilateral forum in the sphere of tourism, Georgi Minchev, chairman of the Bulgarian-Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry announced.

This meeting between the two countries comes in continuation of the policy of rebooting bilateral relations between the two countries, after the visits to the Kremlin by President Rumen Radev and PM Boyko Borissov in May last year.

This will be PM Medvedev’s second visit to Bulgaria. He first visited this country in the winter of 2008 as a member of the delegation led by President Putin, a little before himself being elected President of Russia.
