The Bulgarian member of the European Parliament and of the European Popular Party through the Bulgarian ruling party Gerb Emil Radev has said that Turkey’s threat to break the agreement with EU and to open the borders to Bulgaria and Europe for migrants unless it is granted a visa-free regime by EU despite noncompliance with all criteria, is unacceptable and incompatible with good neighbor relations. Radev has said this during a discussion of the EU-Turkey agreement legal aspects at a European Parliament plenary session in Brussels, the Gerb press service said. According to him the agreement is important in the common efforts to cut migration flow to EU but it requires compliance on both sides. Emil Radev has also urged EU for closer cooperation with the countries of origin and transit of migrants so as to make more effective the work to combat people smuggling, as well as to break illusions that Europe can accept all those willing to enter it for purely economic reasons.
