Great Britain has taken on a firm commitment to act in line with the establishment of the European free market and observe the European citizens’ rights to the freedom of movement in the union. This is what became clear after President Rosen Plevneliev held a meeting with Nick Clegg, Deputy Prime Minister of Britain. “The British show an understanding towards us, displaying a good partnership attitude and very soon even the few problems which have not yet been resolved will be resolved,” the President told Bulgarian journalists in the British capital.

The Head of State highly appreciated the initiative launched by the institutions in the two countries to jointly set up a mechanism for solving problems in case conditions for and proofs of draining the British social system have been established. The two sides to the mechanism will be the British Ministry of Labor and Pensions and the Bulgarian Ministry of Labor and Social Policy and the Finance Ministry. “However, no such information and facts have been established,” the President was adamant. The two leaders shared the opinion that the Bulgarian nationals living in Britain are well-educated, adaptive, integrated and they contribute to the social system and the development of the British economy,” Rosen Plevneliev added.
