Bulgaria should become a member of the Schengen area as soon as possible, Hungarian President Katalin Nowak said after her meeting with President Rumen Radev in Sofia. She commented that EU had made a bad choice by refusing Bulgaria and Romania to join Schengen, noting that illegal migration was on the rise.
