Hahn: Ivanov's Behavior to Bad Zaev

Enlargement Commissioner Johannes Hahn in an interview for the MIA news agency requested that President Ivanov urgently take responsibility for the deal with Greece.

It is not decent for a president of a state to refuse to negotiate with the prime minister, the foreign minister, to receive first-hand information. I think the prime minister and foreign minister have fully respected the constitutional guidelines and can only urgently call the president to take responsibility. This is not a matter of accession, but in democracy we can expect people to be heard among themselves and discuss and should not forget that the head of state is in a model manner for many people in one state. The president, as directly elected, has a special position and responsibility and must be aware of it, otherwise damages function” has said Han.
