DE BG EN - Joint press point (full version) - Martin Schulz - European Parliament President (in #German) 04.12: Ladies and Gentlemen, a warm welcome to, and also a warm welcome of PM Borissov, it was an unusually good discussion, without diplomatic phrases, but rather the truth. We have had an exchange of views on which was marked by a common political conviction, marked by a will for political cooperation, and my personal will to give my support to this government. (...) Weve discussed four complex topics from a long list of topics: the difficult government formation, and the conviction that I expressed that this government stands before great challenges and will hopefully remain stable. Martin Schulz, EP President (in #English): The second point is the increase of the #minimumwage, at 11,5%, and the support for income for weak #pensions with Christmas drawing near, is not only a political deed but also a stabilisation factor for the country. Martin SCHULZ, EP President (#inGerman): And ample space was given to the South Stream issue, we have been informed by PM Borissov about how the things stand from the Bulgarian governments point of view, and we have agreed to stay in touch on the issue, I can say that I told PM Borissov that, thats the most I can say in this press conference, so dont ask any questions, since here I will not say anything further on this issue. (...) And the fourth complex topic that we have discussed is Schengen, we have exchanged views on the greater Schengen development, my personal view is since long well known, the EU is a rights community, when the members fulfill the criteria they have right to claim and therefore I believe the Schengen membership must be evaluated from this point of view and not from a political view point. © Frédérick Moulin 2014 - EU2014 - All rights reserved.
