Bulgaria's MPs instructed the Minister of Culture to take the necessary actions within three months to open and finance a Bulgarian Cultural Information Centre in the city of Taraclia, in Moldova. 

The main part of the Bulgarian national minority in Moldova is concentrated in Taraclia district. 66% of the population there is of Bulgarian ethnicity. Only in the administrative center in the city of Taraclia, the percentage is close to 80. 

It is expected that the centre will support and expand the activities of the already existing 30 cultural institutions of the Bessarabian Bulgarians, in which 5,000 children are involved in education.
Before the vote, the leader of Vazrazhdane party, Kostadin Kostadinov, described the opening of the center as a step too late.
