Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Petko Doykov met with his Ukrainian counterpart Vasyl Bodnar. The two diplomats discussed the traditionally good and friendly relations between Bulgaria and Ukraine which are based on solid historical and cultural ties between the two peoples. „The pro-European orientation of Ukraine, the shared Euro-Atlantic values and the fact that Ukraine is the home of the largest historical Bulgarian community abroad (in excess of 200,000 people) further boost these relations, providing for a solid basis for further strengthening in all areas of mutual interest,“ Deputy Minister Doykov noted.
Petko Doykov and Vasyl Bodnar discussed the engagement of Bulgaria and Ukraine in the Organisation of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation and exchanged views on its future development.
