US President George Bush, who paid a visit to Bulgaria on June 10-11 at the end of his European tour, has sent a handwritten thank-you letter to Bulgaria's Prime Minister Sergey Stanishev.
"I appreciate your candour and your vision for your country and our relationship," the letter reads.
"I wish you all the best in dealing with your parliament as you implement your reform agenda," it concludes.
During his meeting with Prime Minister Sergey Stanishev on June 11, President George Bush called him Mr Clean, referring to his efforts to combat organized crime.
The two also exchanged gifts - Stanishev, known for his passion for motor bikes and rock music, was more than happy to receive a leather jacket with the colours of Bulgaria and the United States encrusted on it. Bush flew to Washington with a gold-plated copy of a vessel from the Panagyurishte treasure.
