Bulgaria Minister Quits Over Graft Scandal

"I take the responsibility for certain personnel decisions in the Interior Ministry by which I have misled the government," Rumen Petkov said at a news conference. Petkov insisted that his resignation was "not a sign of weakness, or yielding to pressure," but rather a necessary step to reforming his ministry.
