Every truck waiting in long queues at the border costs its owner 200 euros a day. This is what Bulgarian GERB-SDS/EPP MEP Andrey Novakov said during a discussion on the issue. The Bulgarian Industrial Association is one of the organisers of the forum in Sofia.
"The queues at the borders between Bulgaria and Romania are not a Bulgarian or Romanian problem. If you stand at Danube Bridge 2 in Vidin, you see a German lorry full of Greek goods with a Polish driver, destined for an Italian customer. This is a corridor on which the European single market depends, it is not just a Bulgarian problem," Novakov was quoted as saying by BTA.
According to him, the stabilisation of the political situation in Bulgaria is a "key" for the country to make further progress in lifting Schengen land border controls.
Air and sea border controls for Bulgaria and Romania were lifted on March 31.
