“The criteria for Bulgaria’s accession to Schengen, which are entirely technical, were met by the country as far back as in 2011. That is known well to all members of the Schengen area, including the governments of the Netherlands and Austria,” caretaker PM Galab Donev said during today’s hearing in parliament, and added that the negative positions by the governments of the Netherlands and Austria against Bulgaria’s accession to Schengen are more likely to be caused by domestic policy considerations.
