Bulgaria's foreign policy priorities remain unchanged, caretaker Minister of Foreign Affairs Svetlan Stoev has told the diplomatic corps in Sofia. The elections abroad, where there will be a record number of 800 stations and a continuation of the current Euro-Atlantic policy are the main priorities, Minister Stoev said.
85 ambassadors and representatives of international organizations took part in the meeting in the Boyana residence. "The mandate of the caretaker government is limited and I hope that after the elections there would be a new cabinet at the end of August and you will have the opportunity to meet with the new Minister of Foreign Affairs. But I can assure you that our foreign policy priorities will remain the same," Stoev says
