Varna, on the Black Sea, October 9 (BTA) - After meeting with
Prime Minister Boyko Borissov on Friday, European Council
President Donald Tusk said Bulgaria is ready to become part of
the Schengen area.

Tusk said: "Today Bulgaria is perhaps the best example, also for
 other Member States, of how to protect its borders."

He also said: "We need to be realistic and refocus the debate
away from how to address the symptoms to how to address the root
 causes."

Tusk and Borissov also discussed Europe's energy problems.
