Articles from Turkish media 4 February 1999
 
TURKS ARE BECOMING GOVERNORS IN BULGARIA
 
Following a new law promulgated in Bulgaria, which grants new rights
to people of Turkish origin, Turks will be able to become governors
and deputy governors. The Head of the National Rights and Freedoms
Movement, Razgrad Deputy Guner Tahir, said that people of Turkish
origin would be able to become deputy governors initially in Kircaali,
Razgrad and Shumen by next week. Tahir added: "Turks will be able to
become civil servants and even head of the departments in the
Ministries of the Interior and National Defence and others. Turks will
also be able to work in Customs and at border gates".
