This was stated in parliament by Foreign Minister Georg Georgiev, BNR reporter Maria Fileva informed.
"We strictly adhere to the consensus reached in 2022 and we will not back down from it. We realize the importance of the enlargement of the European Union and the European integration of the Western Balkan countries but we also confirm the principle of own merits.
