“It is not possible to have security that is only European and security that is only NATO. There must be good and productive cooperation and decisions in the interest of our citizens,” said Vice President Iliana Yotova during an online conference “Ahead of the future: Preparing for NATO 2030”. With this forum the Atlantic Club in Bulgaria is marking its 30th anniversary.
“The conversation about the future NATO has begun and will run parallel with another very important discourse of crucial significance to all of us, citizens of Europe – the conference on the future of the EU and specifically “The future is in your hands” platform,” Vice President Yotova said. “It is time for a new declaration on the development of the EU that will live up to the changed world we are living in, and not just on our continent,” Iliana Yotova stated.
