Minister Neynsky will check the documents for accession to the Board of Peace

One of the issues that I will deal with during my meeting with Mr. Georg Georgiev (former Foreign Minister) is to see what exactly has been signed, because I am not sure that all commitments are public, said Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs Nadezhda Neynsky in response to a question about the Board of Peace and Bulgaria’s future participation in Donald Trump’s initiative.

Nadezhda Neynsky added that the country made a political signal by signing the charter, but she and her colleagues from the European Union have many reservations and question marks regarding its legal status as it was important to understand whether the document has the character of an international treaty.

“At this stage, the idea of ​​ratification is being held back, because without knowing the legal basis of what was signed, no further steps can be taken,” the Foreign Minister added. According to her, the issues related to the financial dimensions must also be seen, as well as the fact that it is managed solely by one person.
