The topic related to possible expulsion of Russian diplomats over the Skripal case is not on the agenda, Bulgaria’s Premier Boyko Borissov told journalists. However, the competent institutions are working carefully on any signal connected with this case, Premier Borissov said. Boyko Borissov commented the statement of the Chairman of the parliamentary group of GERB Tsvetan Tsvetanov who said that evidence about the Skripal case has become much clearer and that Bulgaria should comply with what other developed European countries have done. “Tsvetan Tsvetanov’s reaction on such issues has always been sharper, but at the end decisions are taken by the government”, Premier Boyko Borissov said.
