President Radev at 3SI: We highly appreciate the support of the US, Germany and EC

It is very good for business, the public, that the political leadership, international institutions, business associations get together and openly discuss all important issues. Our initiative continues to generate ideas and guidelines to enhance development, improve digital and transport connectivity, Bulgaria’s President Rumen Radev said at the opening of the second day of the "Three Seas" initiative on July 9.

The summit in Sofia is another proof that this initiative is developing as a unique tool that strengthens our capacity to develop friendly relations. We highly appreciate the support of the strategic partners - the United States, Germany and the European Commission, said President Radev.

The constant development of these projects shows the level of our ambitions. However, they show a significant deficit and we are faced with the need to implement them, regardless of the budget. Did we use strong enough and comprehensive tools for these purposes, President Radev asked.

He thanked Greece for participating in the initiative at his invitation.

Yesterday we discussed the vision of how to develop better cooperation in education, science, innovation, as a guarantee of prosperity and the future. This is the key to success, this is our political will. We will adopt a joint declaration from Sofia, based on our common political will, the head of state said. I hope that these discussions will continue and be constructive, but that they will not only discuss the possibilities, but the problems as well.

The more open we are, the faster the success will come, Rumen Radev said.
