After a meeting in Sofia with Macedonian President Gjorge Ivanov, Bulgarian Head of State Rumen Radev said that Bulgaria accepted the results of talks between Skopje and Athens, as they removed important obstacles along the path of the country's integration process.

A key for Sofia's support for Macedonia's name is strict compliance with its agreements with Bulgaria, President Radev pointed out.
Macedonian President Gjorge Ivanov made a comment on Prime Minister Borissov's refusal to meet with him during his visit to Sofia. "Boyko Borisov is prime minister of the country holding the Presidency of the Council of EU and constantly talks about dialogue, but has taken a side by refusing to meet and has not realized the main goal of the Presidency.”
