Chief Prosecutor Sotir Tsatsarov and his deputy Borislav Sarafov are paying a visit to Macedonia on Monday and Tuesday, according to the prosecuting authority's website.

Tsvetomir Yosifov, who heads the International department at the Supreme Prosecutor's Office of Cassation, is accompanying them.

The three are set to meet Tsatsarov's Macedonian counterpart Marko Zvrlevski and other officials. The Bulgarian officials are traveling to the southwestern neighbor at Zvrlevski's invitation.

A cooperation agreement is expected to be signed between the two prosecuting authorities which will allow them to work together to counter organized crime, corruption, people trafficking, arms trade, extradition and other issues.

A proposal to set up a Balkan Network of Chief Prosecutors will also be on the table during the visit. The step was put forward during Zvrlevski's visit to Sofia last September.
