The Bulgarian medics, who were released one year ago from Libyan jail, said they are waiting for a response from the Council of Ministers over their demand to meet Prime Minister Sergey Stanishev.

The 5 nurses and the 2 doctors insist on finding answers as to why the Bulgarian State failed to fulfil social promises made to them after their return.

The medics refused to comment what exactly was promised to them and was not done, but declared that if the PM fails to accept them in his office until Thursday, they will issue an official statement.

"Bulgarian commitments towards the Libyan children who have contracted AIDS have been fulfilled, but not commitments towards the Bulgarian medics. Until now Sergey Stanishev has not met with them even once; they are not leprous," the leader of the Committee for the Protection of the Medics in Libya, Rosen Markov, had said.
