The EC report on Bulgaria is objective. It points to both progress and deficits that we ourselves know. I cannot say the same about the EP resolution. This resolution presents Bulgaria only in black, which is not true.
This was stated by the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ekaterina Zaharieva, on NOVA’s “Drive straight” program.
Ekaterina Zaharieva is Deputy Prime Minister of Judicial Reform and Minister of.
He regretted that most politicians in our country are happy when we damage our reputation. However, I am not concerned with the resolution itself, it is obvious that some of the arguments of the initiators are political. Are not our opponents imagining that after the next elections, the western media will start writing only positive comments about Bulgaria? Reputation is difficult to build, easy to destroy. It will take years for him to recover. “
According to her, there is still work to be done in Bulgaria on the issues addressed in the EC report. “We know where our problems lie. It is no coincidence that the government’s assessment is that the report is objective. It points out the shortcomings and what the state has to do,” Zaharieva said. He added: “So when, motivated by the Bulgarian MPs, it is mainly about presenting the state only in black, as is the resolution, the consequences will be for the Bulgarian citizens,” Zaharieva was categorical.
On the show, the Deputy Prime Minister also commented on US criticism against the construction of the Balkan Stream, as well as against the implementation of the Belene project. “This is not the first time that the United States has expressed a position against projects in Europe related to the supply of Russian gas.” What is important for Bulgaria is that this project is carried out according to European standards. This is a project that will bring diversification to the supply route. The Bulgarian government is working and has achieved results in this area of diversification and source, “said Ekaterina Zaharieva.

According to her, the more opportunities we have, the cheaper the gas will be. “This is the aspiration of the Bulgarian government: to give the opportunity to choose the source from which we will buy, as well as to have the maximum guarantees that we will not be bypassed as a state,” he added. “I know the opinion of the United States, but in the end we are a sovereign state, a member of the EU and we follow its rules,” insisted Zaharieva.
