Bulgarian PM Denkov: For us, land borders are important, we offered the EC an option for Schengen, and discussions are ongoing

We held a meeting together with the Romanian President, the Chancellor of Austria, and the President of the EC, Ursula von der Leyen. We explained that land borders were important to us and made a suggestion on how it could be approached.

Prime Minister Nikolay Denkov said this in Brussels, BGNES reported.

Left for further discussion. I do not know that there was a face-to-face meeting between Nehammer and von der Leyen, the prime minister added.

There are currently institutions that are engaged. There needs to be more silence for negotiations to take place. It is still unclear how things will develop in the next 1-2 days, we are monitoring the process, explained the Prime Minister.

The European heads of state and government will continue their meeting in Brussels today on issues related to the enlargement of the EU.

The main topics are the financial aid for Ukraine and the community budget. Bulgarian Prime Minister Nikolay Denkov also participated in the summit./BGNES
