Head of State Rumen Radev today held a telephone conversation with President of the Republic of Poland Andrzej Duda ahead of the upcoming summit of the Three Seas Initiative in Warsaw. At the end of the month, the Bulgarian President, together with an economic delegation, will participate in the event and the accompanying business forum. This year the Three Seas regional format, aimed at promoting the development of cooperation and connectivity, celebrates its 10th anniversary.

In his speech, the president pointed out that Bulgaria highly values its relations with Iraq, which is an important partner in the Middle East region

Taking advantage of their geostrategic position, Bulgaria and Georgia have the potential to deepen their connectivity in various areas such as transport, energy, and the digital sector, which will contribute to promoting the economy, investment, and prosperity in the Black Sea region. This was stated by President Rumen Radev, who held a meeting with the Speaker of the Parliament of Georgia, Shalva Papuashvili.

The two were unanimous that restoring peace in Europe through diplomacy is a priority for the EU and the only way to ensure the long-term security and stability of the Old Continent.
