The two sides discussed the priorities of the German Presidency of the Council of the EU, as well as European cooperation within the EU’s Common Security and Defence Policy. Boyko Borissov reaffirmed that in the period of unprecedented crisis Bulgaria will continue to fulfil the commitments it has assumed as part of the Common Security and Defence Policy.
