Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said he hopes the European Commission, EC, will take note of Bulgaria’s progress.
“It is very important to show voters that we can hand you the key of the door to Europe, and for this reason we will wait for the assessment of the EC,” Rutte said after a meeting with Bulgarian President Rosen Plevneliev in Chicago.
The EC will present its report on Bulgaria in July under the Cooperation and Verification Mechanism.
