On his part President Macron said the two countries were in agreement regarding the reform of the EC directive on the posting of workers inside the EU, the construction of European defence and migration. The French head of state expressed solidarity with Bulgaria’s views in favour of the accession of the Western Balkans to the EU and on setting out a roadmap to this end.
