Djadjev addressed the participants in the final forum of the Black Sea NGO network and the association of Bulgarian Black Sea municipalities. He also congratulated them on the International Day of the Black Sea - October 31, which has been marked for five

Also, the European Commission has prepared a document about a new approach to, and more involvement in, the protection of the Black Sea against pollution.
