In a discussion between President Radev and President of the Romanian Senate Călin Constantin Anton Popescu-Tăriceanu, it was pointed out that the upcoming EU presidencies of Bulgaria and Romania in 2018 and 2019 would allow both countries to define and follow common priorities.

The two sides pointed out that a particularly important joint mission for Bulgaria and Romania was to promote stability and security in Southeast Europe and to support the European perspective for the Western Balkan countries.
