(U) Ministry of Foreign Affairs East Asian, Australian and
Oceanic Directorate Expert, Vera Stefanova told POLOFF that
the Bulgarian Government decided to extend 50,000 EURO in
financial aide to the Burma cyclone victims through a
relevant UN or EU mechanism on June 6. Stefanova said that
Bulgaria shares U.S. concerns about the continuing limited
access of international relief workers to the
cyclone-affected areas in the country. Bulgaria's policy is
fully in line with the EU policy of considering measures to
exert further pressure on the Burmese regime to permit full
access to international relief and assessment teams to the
disaster areas in the country.
