The Council of Ministers has adopted regulatory changes making the position of National Coordinator for Combating Antisemitism permanent. This fulfills a commitment made by Bulgaria at the Malmo International Forum on Holocaust Remembrance and Combating Antisemitism, held in Sweden at the end of 2021.

Under the changes, the coordinator will be a deputy foreign minister designated by order of the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Making the position of the national coordinator permanent will ensure the continuity and consistency of its activities. The post was created in October 2017.
