"Today there is growing concern in Bulgaria and outside Bulgaria over the inability of the Bulgarian legal system to effectively fight organised crime and reduce the level of corruption, especially in the legal system," Pardew said. "These problems hinder investment, block economic development, stifle individual initiative, corrupt or drive away young people, and cost the state millions in lost revenues."
“Danas postoji rastuća zabrinutost kako u Bugarskoj tako i izvan Bugarske glede nesposobnosti bugarskog pravnog sustava za učinkovitu borbu protiv organiziranog kriminala i smanjenje razine korupcije, poglavito u pravnom sustavu”, kazao je Pardew. “Ti problemi ometaju ulaganja, blokiraju gospodarski razvitak, guše pojedinačne inicijative, korumpiraju ili odvraćaju mladež i državu koštaju milijune u izgubljenim prihodima”.
