US Ambassador Herro Mustafa on Friday handed visas to Bulgarian students under the Summer Work and Travel Programme at an official ceremony at the US Embassy in Sofia. 

Two-way travel between the US and Bulgaria is at the heart of what makes the two countries such close friends, partners and allies, said US Ambassador Mustafa in her address.

The top diplomat said that at the beginning of the year in which the two countries mark the 120th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations, ties between the US and Bulgaria have never been stronger and the two countries are determined to advance them further.

Ambassador Mustafa said that the consular service with the US Embassy has restored its capacity to pre-pandemic levels. 

According to her, the Programme allows participants to serve as ambassadors of their own countries to the US and share the best of their culture and traditions with the American people. 

Mustafa said that since 2000 over 120,000 Bulgarian students have taken part in the summer programme, building cultural ties and strengthening relations between the two countries.
