The ambassadors of EU Member States will meet in Luxembourg to discuss the proposal of the French presidency to resolve the dispute between Bulgaria and North Macedonia and start membership talks with Tirana and Skopje, BNT reports.
Bulgaria's position on the negotiating framework proposed by the French presidency must be presented by the parliamentary committee on foreign policy. If Bulgaria gives green light on June 21st, the General Affairs Council will approve the Tirana and Skopje negotiating frameworks, while the Western Balkans summit on June 23rd will approve the start dates of the talks.
