In Sofia, the parliamentary leaders of Bulgaria and Cyprus - Tsveta Karayancheva and Demetris Syllouris discussed bilateral cooperation in Sofia. Yancheva commented that the two countries could offer a common tourist product and defined the Bulgarian community on the island and Cypriot students in Bulgaria as a bridge between the two countries. Demetris Syllouris expressed gratitude for the fact that after the partition of Cyprus, Bulgaria gave employment to thousands of Cypriots. The fact that Cyprus today provides employment opportunities for Bulgarian citizens is small repayment we can give for the assistance provided in the past, the guest added.

The president of the parliament of Cyprus Demetris Syllouris also met with President Rumen Radev who expressed his gratitude for the fact that Cyprus was one of the first EU countries to have ratified Bulgaria’s accession and the first to have opened its labour market to Bulgarians.
