The Action Plan against Disinformation, preparation of the forthcoming EU- League of Arab State regular ministerial meeting, as well as the EU - ASEAN cooperation were key topics at the first for 2019 Foreign Affairs Council in Brussels. The Bulgarian delegation was led by Deputy Prime Minister responsible for Justice Reform and Minister of Foreign Affairs Ekaterina Zaharieva.

Minister Zaharieva has pointed out that disinformation is one of the biggest challenges for the security of the European Union. Ministers agreed that it was necessary not only to disclose the cases of disinformation in a timely manner, but also to publicly expose them, and added that no country could do it alone. It was pointed out that the EU would discuss the issue with NATO and the G7.
