Mr Št?ch emphasized the importance of investments that Czech companies are making in Bulgaria in the energy sector, and said that the Czech Republic supports and develops a policy of energy independence.
"The Bulgarian Government has done much since 2009 to improve the utilization of European funds and in the development of the Cohesion Policy. Bulgaria currently has financial stability and sustainability,” the Vice President said.
