During talks in Paris the presidents of Bulgaria and France, Francois Hollande and Rosen Plevneliev, agreed that after the referendum in Great Britain, the EU should be consolidated and should receive a new portion of trust. Plevneliev called to appeal to the United Kingdom to open negotiations for leaving the European Union. Bulgaria expects support from France for its accession to the Schengen Area, Plevneliev said. Regarding the migration crisis, the president voiced hopes that all EU countries would demonstrate maximum solidarity to the ones who must handle first migration pressure, because EU outer borders are not fully synonymous with Schengen.
