I spoke at International Democracy Union in Brussels on Europe's migration crisis. โ€œWho comes, who stays, who pays? Fixing Europeโ€™s immigration systemโ€. Respect means that those who come to Europe must not only be given protection - they must be expected to contribute.

A remarkable day. Another step forward on Bulgariaโ€™s path to the euro. The positive assessments by European Central Bank and European Commission confirm our progress โ€” but the work continues. This follows years of reforms, commitment, and alignment with our European partners.
