Bulgaria’s rotating Presidency of the Council of the European Union gives us big chances to fulfill cross-border infrastructure projects, Bulgaria’s Premier Boyko Borissov said in Varna during the congress of the European Democrat Students. Bulgaria is becoming a very important communication and transport center due to its motorways, ports and railway lines, Premier Borissov further said. Austria and Romania will take over the rotational Presidency of the Council of the EU after Bulgaria and the EU Strategy for the Danube Region is part of that topic. On that occasion Bulgaria and Romania are to hold a joint inter-ministerial meeting in the coastal city of Varna in October.
