She pointed, that despite the contradicting signs by the Hungarian presidency during today about the deadline for the joining, she is an optimist, that our country will enter Schengen during March.“Joining Schengen has two dimensions – technical and political criteria. I believe that Bulgaria is really going on program – this which is expected from us to be done as procedures and fulfilling criteria, we are doing it. The Bulgarian government made a plan maximum for the assimilation of the whole amount, which totals 129 million euro. By data of the Ministry of Interior they are now assimilated 100% percent. In the period 2007-2008 we have had just 1.43% assimilation”, underlined Panayotova.She pointed that she has invited her colleagues from the Bundestag and from the French Senate in the frame of the Hungarian presidency to visit Bulgaria to see really from the scene what is happening.
“The fulfillment of the technical criteria is a whole process, which is expected to end during the month of March, in that we are moving in the direction 100% readiness on all boarders, which are in the frame of the criteria”, explained the Chairwoman of the Committee on European Affairs and Oversight of the European Funds.According to Monika Panayotova the political parties have a nationally responsible position on the topic “Schengen”.“If we undermine the truest in our country, we can not expect everything will develop in the interest of the country”, pointed the member of parliament.
