The leader of Vazrazhdane Kostadin Kostadinov demanded a reaction from the Bulgarian Ministry of Justice in the case of a Bulgarian detained in Greece a year ago following a U.S. warrant. The Bulgarian is suspected of selling US microchips and other high-tech items in Russia through a Bulgarian company, for which, according to Kostadinov, there is no evidence. At today's hearing, the Greek court decided to extradite the man to the United States. In an interview with BNR, the detainee's father said that his son had been forced to confess to being a Russian spy.
