The Prime Ministers of Bulgaria, Israel, Hungary, Romania, Italy, the Austrian Chancellor and the President of Cyprus have held a video conference on the subject of coronavirus. Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said that the key word now was solidarity. He pointed out the enormous threat of the migrant crisis and the hundreds of thousands who come from infected countries without any control being exercised on them.
