During the period 01.07—20.11.2019, a total of 2,261 prophylactic medical examinations were carried out with the four mobile gynaecological offices to uninsured persons of Roma origin and to persons with difficult access to medical facilities, as 951 women were diagnosed with diseases. The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units. During the reporting period, the mobile gynecological offices were divided into four areas: Varna (the city of Varna, the village of Kamenar, the town of Ignatievo, the village of Staro Oryahovo, the village of Sindel, the village of Dubravino, the town of Provadia, the town of Devnya, the town of Suvorovo, the village of Chernevo, the town of Valchi Dol); Silistra (Tutrakan Municipality– the town of Tutrakan, the village of Tsar Samuel, the village of Nova Cherna, the village of Staro Selo, the village of Belitsa, the village of Preslavtsi, the village of Tarnovtsi,

The information provided in this brochure was correct PREPRESS: Vezni Ltd. E-mail: Ltd. Vezni [email protected]: at the time it went to press, June 2021. Bulgaria in figures® – 12th edition Dear business partners, For the twelfth consecutive year, the Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCI) presents to your attention the brochure “Bulgaria in Figures”, which gathers the main macroeconomic indicators of the country and the assessment of a number of leading international organizations. 2020 caused numerous changes in the daily activities of companies and the way of communication between partners, but also created opportunities for quick introduction of new forms of employment and digitalization. In the same year, Bulgaria was accepted as a member of the ERM II exchange rate mechanism and the Banking Union, in preparation of its accession to the Euro area, and did not allow its taxes to increase. Along with maintaining relatively good macroeconomic indicators, it also received a good assessment of the prospects of the economy for this and next year. BCCI has actively participated in the elaboration of all measures with constructive proposals for their amendment and supplementation on the basis of a series of surveys on the effect, consequences and impact of the pandemic on the business environment in the country. We have consistently encouraged companies to monitor the state of the sector in which they operate, to focus on digitalization and to limit actions that will unbearably increase their indebtedness.

  • 1. the Bulgarian Defense Industry in the Transition Period
    1. THE BULGARIAN DEFENSE INDUSTRY IN THE TRANSITION PERIOD The following background on the Bulgarian defense industry is provided for two broad reasons. First, the importance of the industry in the national and some local economies is key to understanding the domestic politics of arms controls. Second, analysis of issues such as overcapacity, conversion to civilian production, industry structure, and domestic markets, provides a clearer background to problems such as SALW stockpiles and illicit arms transfers. During the communist period, the Bulgarian Military-Industrial Complex (MIC) was characterized by a clear focus on manufacture for export (about 90 percent of its output), advanced production technology and efficient production structure. Its product range was oriented towards market niches and Bulgaria’s specialization within the Warsaw Pact.3 This specialization included SALW, armored vehicles, and electronics.4 Bulgaria supplied arms to countries from the Warsaw Pact, the Middle East, North Africa, India and other smaller markets.5 A relatively large share, between 30 and 40 percent of the exports, depended on the political relations that Bulgaria had with these partner countries. This trade was worth several hundred million US dollars per year. The healthy state of the defense industry at the start of the transition period was due to its privileged position under communism, rather than to exceptional management. A large part of the loans granted in these years were to ensure Bulgaria’s mobilization preparedness. After 1989, the MIC underwent widespread structural reforms that reorganized the MIC branch structure, reduced production, stopped technological upgrades and brought the reconstruction and modernization of company plants to a virtual halt.
