Bulgaria will rely on the support of the EC during its Presidency of the Council of the EU, said Prime Minister Boyko Borissov during his meeting with the President of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker in Tallinn.

The Bulgarian Prime Minister thanked Juncker for his words that Bulgaria sets an example – with its financial and economic stability and secure borders.

“We are doing a great job as a reliable Schengen border,” the Bulgarian Prime Minister said. He added that he was pleased with the visits by European leaders in Bulgaria, who are then able to tell their colleagues what they have seen and how we are coping. In his words this will help dispel any doubts whether the country is ready to join Schengen and the Eurozone.
