The Premier of the Republic of Bulgaria Boyko Borissov and European Commission Executive Vice President Valdis Dombrovskis discussed in Brussels Bulgaria’s accession to the ERM II. In a statement after the meeting, Premier Borissov noted that the candidatures of Bulgaria and Croatia for accession to the Eurozone’s waiting room will be considered in July, instead of April this year. Until then, the Bulgarian banks must monitor their capital adequacy, so that Bulgaria does not face any impediments on its path towards ERM II, Premier Borissov further said.
