What the document holds

US Treasury press release JY0208 (2 Jun 2021): Global Magnitsky sanctions on three Bulgarian individuals (Vassil Bojkov, Delyan Peevski, Ilko Zhelyazkov) and 64 entities, with the lists of companies. Programme content is one passage: from early 2018 Peevski and Zhelyazkov ran a scheme selling Bulgarian residency documents, with company representatives paying bribes so clients got citizenship documents immediately instead of making the '$500,000 deposit' or waiting five years. The scheme is already an event; the deposit (currency unspecified, bare '

) and five-year wait are added as described terms. The rest (gambling, elections, entity lists) is out of scope.
