The Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine is working on new textbooks, programs and teacher training for all schools with a language of instruction belonging to national minorities. This was discussed during the meeting of the Ministers of Education and Science of Ukraine and Bulgaria, Lilia Hrynevych and Krasimir Valcheva.

The parties agreed that the Ministry of Education and Science of Bulgaria will also be involved in changes in these directions for schools with the Bulgarian language of instruction and where Bulgarian is studied.

"We are ready to cooperate and take an active part in the development of the education of the Bulgarian minority in Ukraine, as well as to promote the study of our language in your country," said the Minister of Education and Science of the Republic of Bulgaria Krasimir Valchev.

Liliya Hrynevych noted that Ukraine is always open and ready for friendly cooperation with neighboring countries.

"We are grateful to Bulgaria for your consistent support to Ukraine at all levels. We are glad to have such partners. I also want to emphasize that the Law "On Education" is a law of new opportunities, in particular for the Bulgarian minority, it gives us the opportunity to improve the quality of education for every Ukrainian child," Liliya Hrynevych added.

They agreed to sign the document in which this cooperation is established in the near future in Bulgaria.

The ministers also took part in the opening of a language classroom in Odesa secondary school No. 31 of grades I-III of the Odesa City Council of the Odesa region. The equipment will be used both for classes in the Bulgarian language and other foreign languages.
