Bulgaria Prepares Candidate List for EU Diplomatic Posts
by Sofia News Agency www.novinite.com

Bulgaria's Foreign Ministry is preparing a list of up to 20 diplomats to propose as members of the new European External Action Service.
All EU member states are to submit their candidates to the EU High Representative for Foreign Policy, Catherine Ashton.
Bulgaria hopes to impress the High Representative with its nominations and to receive some prestigious diplomatic positions.
Bulgarian EU Commissioner Kristalina Georgieva, who is already in the foreign politics sector and is now one of Ashtons deputies, said this week that the government will do everything possible to support the Bulgarian team in the future European diplomatic service - not on a party level, but on a professional basis.
"The desire of all is to show that the service is a professional one and the member states have found their own place in it. Success is guaranteed by the candidatures that will represent Bulgaria. There are no quotas, there is competition, and we have many wonderful people who can compete at all levels," stated Georgieva.
The creation of a European External Action Service (EEAS) of the EU is enshrined in the Lisbon Treaty and aims to provide a greater authority on the international scene for the Community.
Competition between countries of the Union about which country will have a more authoritative say in EEAS have given rise to mutual suspicions and accusations, and have been extensively reported in the European media.
Bulgaria and the other new member states have insisted that the new service should provide geographic balance and representation of all EU countries.
The service will eventually employ some 6 000 personnel - from diplomatic level through management to support staff.
Bulgaria will seek to obtain several managerial posts - at least one executive, as well as ambassadorial posts in some of the 136 missions of other EU countries.
The Ministry of Foregin Affairs has confirmed that the list of diplomats which we will be presented to Ashton, must first be coordinated with President Georgi Parvanov, who by law, has to agree all ambassadorial nominations or appointments.
The formation of the EEAS will allow the member states to rationalize their diplomatic presences abroad. This would benefit Bulgaria, allowing the country to close some of its missions abroad, and to save costs by relying on the European diplomatic service, thereby ensuring continued support for its citizens..
Deputy Foreign Minister Konstantin Dimitrov explained on Wednesday that the department could protect the rights and security of its citizens, for example, in the Pacific region where Bulgaria would not have the resources to ensure a permanent representation.
