Bulgaria and Portugal share a common position in the debate on the future of the EU which should reaffirm itself as a community promoting growth, employment, social and economic integration.

The two noted that overcoming the differences in the development of the “old” and “new” EU member states is an important condition for strengthening the unity of the Union.
