We stand behind our position on Skopje and want constructive dialogue, Lena Borislavova says

Bulgaria has not backed down from its position on EU membership of the Republic of North Macedonia, but offers a more constructive and effective dialogue between Sofia and Skopje.

This was what Lena Borislavova, head of PM Kiril Petkov’s office, said at a briefing in response to a question related to Petkov's interview with the Financial Times. The proposal was to improve the mechanism of negotiations. Borislavova said Petkov's proposal was that the next six months should be used effectively for frequent meetings of various expert groups that could comprehensively address the issue. /BGNES
