Commenting on the European Commission recommendation for facilitating the free movement of seasonal workers, PM Boyko Borissov commented that now is not the time for such reasoning.
He said that he was not contesting the free movement of people, including the hiring of seasonal workers by countries members of the EU, but added that he does not think Bulgarian citizens should leave for high-risk countries, such as Austria, which urgently hired Bulgarian caregivers.
