Bulgarian MEPs from GERB Andrey Novakov and Emil Radev have submitted a question to the European Commission whether from March 31 the Schengen Agreement will also apply to the Danube ports "serving as crossing points between Bulgaria and Romania, where the crossing is made on water by means of a ferry". Their question about border control on people, goods, cars and trucks is formulated on the occasion of the decision of the Council of the EU to admit the two countries "by air and water".
On Facebook, Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov said that it was realistic for Bulgaria to seek a decision on a date this year, or the beginning of next one, for admission to the Schengen area by land.
