This is the first visit of Bulgarian Foreign Minister to Indonesia since 1965. Minister Mitov and his hosts discussed the bilateral relations between Bulgaria and Indonesia, the EU-Indonesia cooperation, the migration problems in Europe and the Middle East crisis. Minister Mitov commented that Bulgarian ports can become an entry point for Indonesian merchandise, which would shorten their route to the European market.
