New reports are out detailing property price trends in Bulgaria and the region, and The Sofia Echo has details on the front page of its issue published on May 2.

In the newspaper’s Insight section, we examine the nature of the political transition in Russia as Vladimir Putin and Dimitriy Medvedev prepare to change roles.

In our regional coverage, The Sofia Echo outlines the fascinating case of the Gorani community in Kosovo, around whom there is a debate about whether they count as Bulgarians.

Elsewhere in the newspaper, there are all of our usual regular features, including our columnists, venue and restaurant reviews, cinema, television and entertainment listings, and in this week’s newspaper, a special double bonus of film reviews.
