"The European Commission wants Bulgaria to join the EU, but cannot say precisely when," the Sofia News Agency quoted Barroso as telling President Georgi Parvanov on Wednesday, as they met on the sidelines of the UN summit in New York. "The commission will make a fair assessment of what the country has accomplished and what else it has to cope with before becoming a full member of the EU."
“Evropska komisija želi da Bugarska uđe u EU, ali ne može precizno da kaže kada”, rekao je Baroso predsedniku Georgiju Parvanovu a prenela agencija Sofia News Agency u sredu, kada su se sastali tokom samita UN u Njujorku. “Komisija će napraviti pravičnu procenu o tome šta je Bugarska postigla i šta još treba da uradi pre nego što postane punopravna članica EU.”
