The main goal of Bulgaria’s National Assembly after Bulgaria’s EU entry on January 1 2007 would be to work for EU stability and strengthening, as well as for improving Bulgarians’ standard of leaving, a Parliament declaration said.

The Parliament accepted the declaration with convincing majority. Only four ultra-nacionalist MPs voted against the declaration, Darik Radio reported.

The MPs declared their readiness to keep the current pace of work in the fields of judicial reform, agriculture and fight against corruption and organised crime.

The ruling coalition representatives said that the former two cabinets contributed to Bulgaria’s readiness for the EU entry, Darik said.

Democrates for Strong Bulgaria (DSB) leader Ivan Kostov said that Bulgaria’s EU membership was not full-fledged because Bulgaria was going to be the poorest EU member.

Union of Democratic Forces (UDF) leader Petar Stoyanov said that he was satisified with Bulgaria’s EU membership, but UDF would be critical of the Cabinet’s work.
