Bulgaria recognised as a reliable ally in NATO

The US Embassy in Bulgaria is pleased to announce that Bulgaria is recognized by the official US State Department blog, DipNote, as an ally America can count on. DipNote claims that the Republic of Bulgaria and the United States have built relationships that are a good example of the close ties America has with its NATO allies.

The official US State Department blog praises Bulgaria’s efforts to modernize its army, as well as its projected increase in defense spending to 2 per cent of GDP by 2024.

Over the last 25 years, the United States has provided more than $340 million in security assistance to Bulgaria, and together the U.S. and Bulgaria work to improve the security environment in Eastern Europe.
