“At this stage, the Bulgarian government believes that the decision not to join the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration, protects to the fullest extent the interests of the country and its citizens,” a government statement read.

The non-binding pact, which seeks to cover all dimensions of international migration, was approved on July 13 by all UN member states except the United States. The paper represents the international community’s attempt to establish a common global approach to all aspects of international migration.
However, it has been rejected by the US and several other countries, including Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia.
