The plan provides for greater participation of this country in OECD activities and identifies areas for interaction with OECD experts in the pursuit of successful reforms.

Deputy Prime Minister Ekaterina Zaharieva said Bulgaria and Macedonia would send joint teams to Poland and the United Kingdom to share experience in organizing the joint presidency of the Berlin Process, which Sofia and Skopje will take over in 2020.
