Bulgaria can’t keep migrants on its territory against their will, Bulgaria’s Premier Boyko Borissov said at the Campaign Managers Meeting of the European People’s Party in Sofia. Sofia agreed to receive 1,200 people under the agreement for relocation of migrants, but those people do not want to stay in Bulgaria. They would like to go to Austria, Sweden and Germany instead. The migrants do not want to reside in Hungary, the Czech Republic and Poland either. Only two migrants arrived to Bulgaria under the relocation agreement and one of them already ran away from the country, Premier Borissov pointed out.
