During a debate in the European Parliament in Strasbourg, a large number of MEPs called for the immediate accession of Bulgaria and Romania to Schengen, the BNR’s correspondent in Brussels Angelina Piskova informed. Earlier, Bulgarian MEPs from all political groups issued a declaration demanding that the 11-year blockade on the two countries be lifted.
