Varna has received a twinning request from the city of Ohrid in North Macedonia, said Varna Municipality Mayor Blagomir Kotsev, who took part in the regional conference "Europe in the Balkans: A Common Future", organized by BTA here on Wednesday. Kotsev said that this is an exceptional opportunity to bring closer together not just the two cities but also their respective countries.

The Mayor added that he welcomes the efforts of all Balkan countries that are following Bulgaria's example on their path toward future European Union membership. "Varna is an example of how Balkan cities can develop successfully. Potential cooperation like the one with Ohrid, which I believe will happen, would give us the opportunity to show how European funds can contribute to the development of the Balkan region," he said.
