Deputy Prime Minister Deniza Slateva who is in charge of the preparation of Bulgaria’s EU presidency in 2018 stated that some key steps have been taken in the sphere she is entrusted with.

The government has adopted an updated plan of preparation for the presidency and issues that had been pending over 2-3 months have been resolved very quickly. The delay in the individual branches has largely been compensated for and a culture programme for the period of the presidency will be endorsed, Deputy Prime Minister Slateva said.
