President Rumen Radev will convene the Council on National Security to discuss Bulgaria's position towards North Macedonia and to seek consensus with all political parties in the National Assembly. This was announced by the head of state in Brussels.
"Bulgaria will open the door to North Macedonia only after guarantees and protection of our national interest, including constitutional protection of Macedonian Bulgarians, rejection of hate speech and guarantees for the irreversibility of this process," President Radev pointed out.
