There will be three direct flights on the Bulgaria-Luxembourg route as of July 1. It became clear during the official visit of Bulgaria’s Deputy Premier and Minister of Foreign Affairs Ekaterina Zaharieva to Luxembourg. "We must not lock entire countries in the fight against the coronavirus, but impose restrictions in certain regions and towns where Covid-19 outbreaks are registered", Luxembourg’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Jean Asselborn said. Minister Zaharieva agreed with her counterpart and underlined that Bulgaria is open for tourists from Luxembourg and awaits them. Ministers Asselborn and Zaharieva discussed a series of topics from the EU agenda- the budget of the European Union, the recovery from the consequences of the coronavirus, the enlargement of the Union, the Middle East, etc.
