She stated her support for extending the trans-European Transport Network towards this group of countries, for recruiting more students from these countries through the Erasmus+ programme, and for promoting trans-border cooperation. Regarding the situation in Libya, Deputy Minister Kraleva stated that the upcoming local elections there must cover the entire national territory, and that the preparations for them must not hinder the efforts by various Libyan factions aimed at a new constitution of the country.
