All of the 73 Bulgarian nationals who flew to France as seasonal workers but were not allowed out of Charles De Gaulle airport in Paris and had to spend more than 24 hours there, have been put on board an airplane to Sofia.
The Bulgarian embassy in Paris rendered them every assistance. This was announced by the Bulgarian Foreign Ministry which goes on to explain that as of 17 March no foreign citizens are allowed into France, and as of 8 April – this ban includes seasonal workers as well.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has urged seasonal workers many times not to travel to high-risk destinations. The seasonal workers have filed a complaint in court for being denied entry into France. A ruling of the Paris court is pending.
