Bulgaria marks a historic milestone as the Council of Europe officially ends its post-monitoring dialogue with the country after 26 years. Denitsa Sacheva highlighted on Facebook that the resolution acknowledged Bulgaria’s significant progress in strengthening democracy, upholding the rule of law, and protecting human rights. While the post-monitoring dialogue has ended, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe will continue periodic reviews to monitor the country’s developments. Borissov compared the end of monitoring to Bulgaria’s progress on Schengen membership, noting both as achievements under the current administration. “The world is confidently heading towards war,” Borissov said.
