Our country behaves as a worthy member of the European Union, respecting all adopted packages of sanctions. This gives us the opportunity to look for alternatives to gas and oil and end our dependence on Russia, Foreign Minister Teodora Genchovska told bTV about the information that Germany and Italy have decided to pay in Russian rubles for gas supplies.
“The decisions of Germany and Italy are their decisions, but we are still talking about some solidarity in the EU,” Genchovska said.
She also commented on the topic of European integration of the Republic of Northern Macedonia: “Bulgaria has a clear and strong position on Northern Macedonia, which remains unchanged. The decision to convene the CIS is entirely in the hands of the president. “
The foreign minister explained that there were no behind-the-scenes talks with her to lift the veto.
“We only want to lift the veto, and I do not see any concrete action on their part. We do not bargain – behind the scenes, behind the scenes, we do not bargain, “said Genchovska.
