The European Commission will send a letter of formal notice to Bulgaria as its national law do not fully or accurately transpose EU rules on combating racism and xenophobia. Four other member states- Belgium, Finland, Poland and Sweden- will also receive such letters, BNR’s correspondent in Brussels Angelina Piskova reported.
