Thus, Bulgaria fulfills the requirements under two European directives, under which infringement procedures have been initiated. 

With the adoption of the Marine Strategy and the Program of Measures until 2027, the country fulfills the requirements of Brussels and Sofia expects the infringement procedure against Bulgaria to be closed by the European Commission, BTA reports.
