Regardless of the outcome of the presidential elections due on 6 November, I hope that Bulgaria will remain stable and will manage to prepare well for the challenges posed by the EU Presidency as from January 2018. "For six months, Bulgaria will be the center of big politics in Europe. Sofia will concentrate the debate, as well as the making of responsible decisions on the EU's future in the conditions of a record-high number of crises", President Rosen Plevneliev said before the Bulgarians in New York, where he arrived on a working visit to attend the 71st Session of the UN General Assembly.

The plethora of crises creates a need for a long-term and coordinated decision-making process in the EU. Currently is it more important than ever before for us to show cooperation, because Europe should not experience a crisis of values and solidarity. All of us would like to have a functioning EU and everyone should contribute to restoring the trust in the European institutions. This is what Head of State Rosen Plevneliev said at a joint news conference with the leaders of the EU countries from the Arraiolos group.
