Bulgaria's Caretaker Prime Minister Galab Donev and Secretary General of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Mathias Cormann will participate today in the official presentation of the "Economic Outlook for Bulgaria" report. Before that, the two will have an official meeting in the Council of Ministers. 

Bulgaria's accession to the OECD is an important priority for the country's foreign policy, and the preparation of the report is a mandatory step on this path.
