In another telephone call, Borissov and Orban have agreed that the Bratislava summit should necessarily discuss the situation in the EU in the context of Brexit. With Vucic Borissov has discussed the need to promote bilateral communication and options for cooperation in energy, including the construction of a gas connection between Bulgaria and Serbia.
