“I have never hailed and will never hail CETA (the EU-Canada Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement). On the contrary, as president of Bulgaria and guardian of the Bulgarian Constitution I am going to refer the matter of its lawfulness to the Constitutional Court.

He has submitted amendments to the text, including guarantees for safeguarding the cohesion policy that provides funds to poorer economies helping them to catch up with more advanced ones.

The final text will be passed on 25 March in Rome.
