President Radev also held a meeting with his Ukrainian counterpart Petro Poroshenko who assured the Bulgarian head of state that the Bulgarian ethnic community in Ukraine will not be affected by the legislative changes which restrict mother-tongue study after the fifth grade at school. The two also discussed the idea of a visit to Sofia by the Ukrainian minister of education for specifying the best possible way of protecting the Bulgarian interests.
