European Security Is Priority for Bulgaria and the UK
Tuesday, 25 October 2016
"Britain is a strategic partner in Europe and an important NATO ally. We expect this situation to be preserved after the decision of the British referendum." This was what Bulgarian Minister of Foreign Affairs Daniel Mitov said at a meeting with his British counterpart Boris Johnson in the framework of a working visit to London. During the meeting it was agreed that cooperation in addressing migration and the fight against terrorism would be deepened. The two foreign ministers also discussed the future relations between the EU and the UK, following Brexit. "For us it is essential to guarantee the rights of Bulgarian citizens who live and work in the UK. The British government has been working on organizing discussions. There will be still talks on the topic," Minister Daniel Mitov said after meeting.
