Bulgaria calls on Great Britain to lift travel restrictions

In a conversation with the new Ambassador of Great Britain and Northern Ireland to Bulgaria Rob Dixon Bulgaria’s Deputy Premier and Minister of Tourism Mariana Nikolova called on the UK to abolish restrictions for travel to Bulgaria, BTA informs.

The British authorities still require from citizens who reside in Bulgaria to be placed under mandatory fourteen-day quarantine when entering the territory of the United Kingdom. This completely blocks the opportunity for British tourists to visit our country which affected Bulgaria’s coastal resorts. It is also an impediment to Bulgarians who live, work or study in Great Britain.
