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. He therefore asked the EU and the other countries to propose serious measures to overcome the migrant crisis. It is important for the world to find a solution, because I am convinced that an economic and financial crisis is knocking on the door, Borissov warned.
