BULGARIA-EU – NO CONCESSIONS
After his first visit to Brussels, the Bulgarian President Rossen Plevneliev said that there has not been a positive response to the demand made by the Bulgarian Prime Minister Boiko Borissov the EU to increase its financial share in infrastructure projects in Bulgaria. Currently Bulgaria pays 20% and the EU 80%. During his meeting with the German Chancellor Merkel in Berlin recently the Bulgarian Prime Minister asked that the share of the Bulgarian state decreases to 5%. Only member states with serious economic problems have received such kind of support from the EU. The Bulgarian government considers this approach unjust, as it stimulates undisciplined member states and punishes the others.
