On Thursday night Prime Minister Viktor Orbán will travel to the capital of Bulgaria. On Friday he will hold talks with his Bulgarian counterpart Boyko Borissov on strengthening Hungarian-Bulgarian relations; they will also discuss challenges facing the EU, including the issue of migration. Following their meeting the two prime ministers will hold a joint press conference.
In an interview with public broadcaster Magyar Rádió the Prime Minister said that a new European line of defence must be established along the borders between Bulgaria and Greece, and Macedonia and Greece. He emphasised the importance of admitting Bulgaria into the Schengen Area, “because it has fought well, and has complied with all its treaty obligations”.
