The European prospects for the Western Balkan countries was the focus of a face-to-face meeting between President Rumen Radev and the visiting European Commissioner for Enlargement and Neighbourhood Policy, Oliver Varhelyi. 

 

The Bulgarian Head of State expounded this country's position, which consistently expressed Bulgaria's expectations for the active engagement of the Republic of North Macedonia in resolving the outstanding issues in the relations between the two countries, as well as the sustainable implementation of the Copenhagen criteria for EU membership, which would also push ahead the process of our south-western neighbour's European integration.
