Bulgarian Minister of Transport Ivaylo Moskovski has said that on 6 September in Kavala, Greece, an intergovernmental memorandum will be signed between Bulgaria and Greece for a new railway connection between the Greek ports of Thessaloniki, Kavala and Alexandroupolis and the Bulgarian ports of Burgas and Varna on the Black Sea, and Ruse on the Danube.
The Bulgarian section will cost roughly 1 billion euro, and the Greek one, about 4 billion. The project is expected to attract many investors, to be financed by the Juncker Plan or to prompt the interest of the European Investment Bank and other large banks.
