The more Bulgaria, Romania and Greece pool their efforts for an integrated and developed infrastructure, the faster the welfare of the people in each of these countries will grow, "We Continue the Change" Co-chairman Kiril Petkov said at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Kiril Petkov and Finance Minister Assen Vassilev participated at a discussion entitled ''Rethink the Ports as Hubs: The strategic importance for Greece, Balkans and Europe'' organized by ‘’Greek House Davos’’.

He was adamant that "infrastructure development can allow the Balkans to achieve the highest GDP growth in Europe".

Meanwhile, traffic has been growing between 20% and 40% in recent years’’, Assen Vassilev further said.
