The hearing of Bulgaria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Ekaterina Zaharieva and this country’s Minister of Justice Desislava Ahladova from the Monitoring Group on Democracy, Rule of Law and Fundamental Rights (DRFMG) in the European Parliament has been postponed to January, although the EP had invited them for a meeting on December 17th. 

The European Parliament failed to find interpreters in Bulgarian, because of the new, stricter schedules related to the Covid-19 pandemic, BNR correspondent Angelina Piskova reported from Brussels.
