Andrey Kovachev, MEP from the EPP: “Just now, at the EPP meeting that is beginning in Italy, I briefed Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on the situation, and I believe that Skopje has no grounds to complain about Bulgaria—what exactly has Bulgaria done that is problematic? Absolutely nothing. Of course, we have raised the humanitarian issue concerning Iva Mihaylova at every level.”
