The President of the European Central Bank (ECB) Christine Lagarde welcomed the governor of the Bulgarian National Bank (BNB) Dimitar Radev as an observer on the Governing Council of the ECB.

In a post on social networks, Lagarde has recalled that there are a little more than 100 days left until Bulgaria's official accession to the eurozone and published a photo in which she shakes hands with the governor of the BNB, BTA reports.

"In a little more than 100 days, Bulgaria will become the 21st country to adopt our single currency. I am pleased to welcome the governor of the Bulgarian National Bank Dimitar Radev to the Governing Council. He will participate in our meetings as an observer until Bulgaria's accession on January 1," Lagarde wrote last night in "Х".
