In a BTA interview, Environment and Waters Minister Julian Popov said that his greatest achievement during his term of office is the way he and his team have managed to put Bulgaria on the map of European and global climate policies. "We participated in the [2023 United Nations] Climate Change Conference (COP 28) in Dubai and we were actively involved in the European negotiating position. As a country, we also learned a lot first-hand about the negotiation process, so that from now on we are not just consumers of policies that have been passed to us by Brussels, but we are a participant who can defend its national interests in the best way," the Minister stressed.
