Bulgaria is not making full use of its geographical location and its potential which is key to Bulgarian business, said President Rumen Radev at a meeting with representatives of the Association of the Organizations of Bulgarian Employers (AOBE). According to Bulgaria’s head of state, Bulgaria should be more open to neighboring countries, the BTA reported.
"Transport and energy connectivity should be enhanced to enable Bulgaria to take advantage of its geographical location", Rumen Radev went on to say. President Radev announced that his Romanian counterpart Klaus Iohannis is to pay a visit to Bulgaria. Rumen Radev expressed hope that the construction of at least one more bridge over the Danube River would begin.
