The trade unions and employers support the quick admission of Bulgaria to the EU’s Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM II) by the end of April, 2020.

Entry into the Eurozone is a national objective and a priority in our foreign and economic policy. It is a factor for a radical change in the investment environment, for the acceleration of Bulgaria’s full EU integration. Admission will make it easier to come out of the recession after Covid-19. It will give the start to a multitude of positive developments in the economy and the social sphere in the long-term, a joint statement by the social partners reads.
