Bulgaria’s commissioner-designate faces questions in EP

Bulgaria’s candidate for the vacant post of science commissioner, Iliana Ivanova, will face hearings in the European Parliament’s Committees on Tuesday. The hearing by the Industry, Science and Energy and Culture and Education Committees will take place from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and will be broadcast live on EbS+. The replacement has become necessary because the previous Bulgarian Commissioner Mariya Gabriel has become Vice Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of her country. mgr
