European Commission Vice-President Valdis Dombrovskis stated in Riga that if Bulgaria handles its commitments without problem, then it will be given the green light for entering the European Exchange Rate Mechanism ERM II as early as the summer of this year.
He added that it will be at least another three years after that before the country can adopt the euro.
