It is a factor for a radical change in the investment environment, for the acceleration of Bulgaria’s full EU integration. Admission will make it easier to come out of the recession after Covid-19. It will give the start to a multitude of positive developments in the economy and the social sphere in the long-term, a joint statement by the social partners reads.
