The National Revenue Agency has published a list of 64 companies connected with Delyan Peevski, Vasil Bozhkov and Ilko Zhelyazkov who were recently sanctioned under the Global Magnitsky Act. Meanwhile, Bulgaria’s caretaker Minister of Finance Assen Vassilev told the Bulgarian National Television that if any cabinet members are connected with Bozhkov and Peevski, they will enter the lists of connected persons and will leave the caretaker government. 

Bulgaria’s caretaker cabinet has already set up a working group to protect state and municipal companies from falling within the scope of sanctions imposed by the United States Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).
