Today, the United States and Bulgaria signed a joint Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Strategic Civil Nuclear Cooperation (NCMOU), which will further strengthen the diplomatic and economic ties between our two nations. This NCMOU bolsters our bilateral strategic relationship while deepening our cooperation on energy security.
