A group of Bulgarians from different business spheres has established an Australian-Bulgarian Business Council aimed at deepening trade and economic ties between Bulgariaand Australia, it became clear at a meeting between Bulgaria’s Deputy Minister of Economy Lila Ivanova and Australia’s Ambassador in Greece, Bulgaria and Romania Kate Logan.
In Lilia Ivanova’s words, Bulgaria has the opportunity to boost exports of medicines, engines and electric devices, medical instruments, essential oils and other products to Australia.
Another topic of discussion was one of the priorities of the Bulgarian Presidency of the Council of the EU in the field of trade policy in the first half of last year, when a mandate was passed and negotiations on free trade agreements with Australia and New Zealand began.
