On Tuesday, July 7, Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatsenyuk met with President of the Republic of Bulgaria Rosen Plevneliev, who is in Ukraine on an official visit.

The President of Bulgaria supported the course of reforms of the Ukrainian Government, which is embodied in dramatic historical circumstances. According to him, the path chosen has no alternative, as evidenced by the experience of his native country: only through necessary, albeit difficult changes, Bulgaria has managed to overcome the consequences of the mismanagement of the Communist regime.

Arseniy Yatsenyuk thanked Rosen Plevneliev for his personal steadfast stand in defense of freedom, territorial integrity and independence of Ukraine against Russian aggression and noted the significant political and humanitarian assistance that Bulgaria provides to our country.

The parties discussed the Ukraine’s internal and external situation. They paid special attention to economic cooperation, including plans for intergovernmental consultations and a bilateral Commission on economic cooperation, the implementation of infrastructure projects, as well as attracting investment.

Moreover, it was about the most relevant issues of regional peace and security, consolidation of international efforts to protect the common European values and unity of the European peoples.
