Bulgaria and India aim to restore intensive diplomatic relations. Deepening of cooperation in various spheres was discussed during the working visit of National Assembly president Rosen Zhelyazkov to Delhi. Investments will be encouraged with the expected signing of a free trade agreement between the EU and India. This became clear during the talks with Vice President of India, Jagdeep Dhankhar. A bilateral program in the sphere of education and culture is also to be signed.

Bilateral investments “are not only in the field of outsourcing, or steel production, but also in new technologies. An important thing is that we don't have any unresolved issues," Zhelyazkov pointed out. He gave as a good example the fact that the third largest Internet provider in India is a Bulgarian company.
