The Government press office in turn cited the European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso during his Wednesday meeting with Bulgarian Prime Minister, Boyko Borisov.

Barroso has promised an honest and objective report, all while noting the improvement of Bulgaria’s justice system and internal affairs. He has confirmed that the two countries will be treated according to their own achievements.

The deadline to publish the reports was mid-July and was slightly extended.

On Wednesday, a diplomat, speaking off-the-record, informed that the European Union is considering separating the monitoring of Romania and Bulgaria, due to the political turmoil in Romania.
