Vladimir Mitev talks to Doru Dragomir - the president of the Bilateral Chamber of Commerce Romania-Bulgaria, about the annual summer problems at the Bulgarian-Romanian border crossings - the long queues of vehicles. Doru Dragomir tells about a number of ideas his chamber of commerce has proposed to both government - such as electronic payment of the bridge fees, special subscription cards or green lines for people who travel for work. Vladimir Mitev mentions that the two countries theoretically could try to create their own space without border control, something like a mini-Schengen. At the end Doru Dragomir tells about some good practices that have been applied - e.g. the small trucks now have a fast lane at the Rousse-Giurgiu border crossing.

What can Romania and Bulgaria to do reduce the queue on their border crossings?
