It is a real pity because the same amount of money applied effectively instead of looted would have made Bulgaria the Switzerland of the East by now. I've visited your country and love it there - and love the people - but the road to go is a long one.

The thing is, it would actually save them from their population problems.

For example in Poland they managed to raise their economy enough that people just stopped leaving.

So even the demographic part is self inflicted. Corruption -> poverty -> people leaving the country.

That's true, the brain drain is going to be impossible to stop without giving people a credible future and for that to happen the corruption needs to stop.
