“Connecting Europe Express”, a special train put together as part of the European Year of Rail 2021, has arrived in Bulgaria’s capital Sofia. The European Commission’s delegation is led by Dirk Beckers, Director of the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency. The Mayor of Sofia Yordanka Fandakova and Bulgaria’s caretaker Deputy Minister of Transport, Information Technology and Communications Neli Andreeva welcomed the delegation at the Sofia Central Railway Station.
