At the European Union summit due on 25 March in Rome, the so-called Rome Declaration will be signed aimed to determine the new EU agenda. At a meeting today the cabinet has approved the position that will be expressed by President Rumen Radev in Rome, said caretaker Deputy PM Deniza Slateva in charge of the preparation of the Bulgarian Presidency of the Council of the EU in 2018. The Rome summit will mark the 60th anniversary since the signing of the Treaties of Rome for European integration. Zlateva explained it was quite satisfactory that the coordinated text of the declaration confirmed the unity of the European project and included an explicit demand of the Bulgarian side for preserving cohesion as both a principle and a tool of the EU.
