It is the first-ever visit to Bulgaria of a Japanese premier. The high-ranking guest will meet for talks with Prime Minister Boyko Borissov, and tomorrow – with President Rumen Radev. Central to the talks of the prime ministers will be the Bulgarian Presidency of the Council of the European Union and readiness for expansion of the Union’s strategic partnership with Japan.
The prime minister of Japan is accompanied by his wife, Mrs Akie Abe. Today she will pay a visit to the Bulgarian National Radio where she will be welcomed by the Radio’s Director General Alexander Velev and the Children’s Radio Choir which is quite popular in Japan with more than 500 concerts given in more than 150 cities in that country.
