The councils of the EU Member States reported their achievements at the Annual Meeting of the Presidents and Secretaries-General of the EU ESCs and the EESC.

"The work of Bulgaria's Economic and Social Council is an example of how balanced positions and successful policies can be achieved through dialogue and cooperation," ESC Chair Zornitsa Rusinova told the delegates on Thursday. "During its term, the ESC has adopted more than 15 acts relating to the green transition. One of the key acts is a Resolution adopted this year to create a National Just Transition Plan," she said.
