President Rosen Plevneliev presented to representatives of Estonian business information about the macroeconomic indicators and business environment in Bulgaria. In Tallinn, the President had meetings with the President of the Estonian Chamber of Commerce Toomas Luman and the Managing Board of the Chamber.
Agriculture, food production and high technologies, were identified by the President as sectors that may be of interest to Estonian companies for investing in Bulgaria. Tourism and development of industrial zones are also areas that Bulgaria is developing with possibilities for business projects realization. In recent years, our country has been developing year-round tourism - mountain and sea, including skiing, eco, spa and rural tourism, the President noted.
In the Estonian capital, the President visited the Information and Communication Technology Demo Centre and NATO Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence.
"In the field of cyber security Bulgaria has much to contribute to collective security within NATO and I hope that our country will find a strong specialization within the Alliance," said the Bulgarian Head of State, after visiting NATO's Centre for cyber security. According to the President, Bulgarian talent in the field of information and communication technologies can be successfully used for the realization of substantial defense priorities and can add value to NATO collective defense system.
The President expressed his hope that Bulgaria will join the eleven NATO nations working together in strategic areas in the Centre for Cyber Security in Tallinn. "We must build our capacity and work jointly with our partners" said Rosen Plevneliev.
Speaking to reporters in Tallinn, the President once again called for an integrated approach and political will to accelerate the introduction of e-government in Bulgaria. According to the Head of State, it is not normal that e-government has been discussed in Bulgaria for years, that there are three different institutions dealing with e-services for citizens and yet no integrated approach in place that would bring concrete results.
„Citizens' access to electronic services has become a basic human right and it is our obligation to provide it to our people," the President was adamant and recalled the successful Estonian example. According to President Plevneliev, this would restore public confidence in the institutions and faith in their own country. "It is time to talk less and work more", was Rosen Plevneliev’s firm statement.
