An eight-page special feature on Italy and Bulgaria, with articles on all matters from the serious to the very spirit of the country to subjects to make you smile, is at the core of The Sofia Echo appearing on June 5 2009.

The newspaper also sets the scene for the European Parliament elections, with coverage of the Bulgarian contest and an article on trends in other European Union states going to the polls from June 4 to 7.

In our business section, we assess the arguments around the re-election of Ivan Iskrov as the chief of central Bulgarian National Bank, update the Belene saga and examine what is happening in the transport sector.

In the features section, there are full details of Sofia Design Week, and Gabriel Hershman has an essay on the visit to Bulgaria by playwright and actor Steven Berkoff.

As ever, the newspaper has its customary listings of what's on, restaurant review, social photos and sports coverage.
