The European Parliament approved with a vast majority the candidature of MEP Mariya Gabriel who was proposed by the Bulgarian government to become the next Bulgarian EU Commissioner. A public hearing of the Bulgarian MEP was held on June 20 at the European Parliament where Mariya Gabriel was answering in the course of three hours questions of five Parliamentary committees. After the voting at the European Parliament the EC President Jean Claude Juncker is expected to send a letter to all EU member states asking them to approve the Bulgarian candidature. The final approval had to be given by the ambassadors of the 28 member states. Mariya Gabriel is expected to become EU Commissioner for Digital Economy and Society on the eve of the weekly sitting of the European Commission next Wednesday.
