According to Ivan Geshev, Bulgaria is a European country and respects European standards.
"The Ministry of Interior gave detailed information which establishes that there was no shooting. There is an inspection in Bourgas which has established the same," Geshev added.
The Prosecutor General stressed that Bulgaria meets the Schengen standards and complies with all requirements.
"It would be quite undeserved for our country not to be admitted to this community," Ivan Geshev further said and described the interaction between Bulgaria and Turkey at the level of Prosecutor's office and judiciary as good.
