Ambassador Rubin said he was not going to go into details but that he hoped it would be soon. He added he was not ready to answer the question about the price, but stated that the American side was working hard with its Bulgarian allies and partners for an agreement that will be acceptable to both sides and will meet Bulgaria’s requirements.
