Shortly before Borissov made this statement, in Sofia the presidential contender of the ruling party Gerb Tsetska Tsacheva called for lifting economic sanctions against Russia imposed over the conflict in Ukraine. On Friday’s eve the participants in the EU summit criticized Russia for its role in the Syria conflict but refrained from imposing further sanctions against it.
