2 published verifications about Delyan Peevski Delyan Peevski ×
“Delyan Peevski is included on one or more international sanctions lists as of April 15, 2026.”
Multiple primary government sources confirm Delyan Peevski's inclusion on international sanctions lists. He was designated on the U.S. OFAC SDN List under the Global Magnitsky Act in June 2021 and on the UK Global Anti-Corruption Sanctions list, with the UK entry confirmed as recently as April 2025. No credible source reports any delisting, and his own public statements as of late 2025 confirm he is appealing the sanctions — meaning they remain in force. The existence of a legal appeal does not constitute removal from a sanctions list.
“Delyan Peevski has committed criminal acts for which he has not been prosecuted in Bulgaria as of April 4, 2026.”
The claim conflates serious allegations with established criminal guilt. While US and UK Magnitsky sanctions against Peevski for corruption and bribery are well-documented, and the absence of Bulgarian prosecution is confirmed across multiple credible sources, no court or adjudicative body has determined that Peevski "committed criminal acts." Bulgarian prosecutors have investigated him repeatedly without bringing charges. Presenting unproven allegations as established fact materially distorts what the evidence actually shows.
