Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov is in Brussels, where he participates in the European Council meeting. Speaking to reporters Borissov has declared that the EU agreement with Turkey must be preserved and that accession negotiations should continue.
Pointing out that Turkey was the largest neighbor not only of Bulgaria but also of the EU, the Prime Minister warned that if Turkey was viewed as an enemy, NATO's southern flank would collapse and Bulgaria would not be able to withstand migratory pressure on Europe. In Brussels, Borissov had talks with European Council President Donald Tusk and UK Prime Minister Teresa May.
Tusk and Borissov discussed the priorities of the Bulgarian EU Council Presidency in 2018 and the upcoming Western Balkans summit in May in Sofia. Teresa May invited the Bulgarian PM to pay a visit to Britain. Today, the Bulgarian Prime Minister is expected to have talks with EC President Jean-Claude Juncker.
