Delyan Peevski Was Sanctioned By The U.S. Department Of The Treasury For Corruption

Delyan Peevski, Bulgarian former media mogul, businessman and former member of the National Assembly was sanctioned, along with two other individuals, by the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) on 2 June 2021 for extensive roles in corruption in Bulgaria. The U.S. Department of the Treasury states that Peevski is an oligarch who previously served as a Bulgarian MP and media mogul and has regularly engaged in corruption, using influence peddling and bribes to protect himself from public scrutiny and exert control over key institutions and sectors in Bulgarian society. In September 2019, Peevski actively worked to negatively influence the Bulgarian political process in the October 27, 2019 municipal elections. Peevski negotiated with politicians to provide them with political support and positive media coverage in return for receiving protection from criminal investigations. The archive photograph of Delyan Peevski was taken during one of his few and short visits at the Bulgarian National Assembly on 27 June 2019 in Sofia, Bulgaria. (Photo by Denislav Stoychev/NurPhoto)
