 Show Bulgarian President Rosen Plevneliev (L) and Romanian President Klaus Iohannis both face the challenges of guiding their nations between the European migration crisis and the Ukraine-Russia standoff. (DANIEL MIHAILESCU/AFP/Getty Images) Romania and Bulgaria have a long history of being influenced by their larger, more powerful neighboring countries. Located in the southeast corner of Europe in the Balkan region, Romania was once dominated by the Austro-Hungarian Empire, while Bulgaria was ruled over by the Ottomans. During the Cold War, both countries were absorbed as satellite states by the Soviet Union. When the Soviet Union collapsed, Romania and Bulgaria adopted a pro-West path, joining the European Union and NATO in 2007. It is no surprise, then, that both countries are once again caught in the middle of conflicts and crises between these powers, mainly the refugee crisis between Europe and Turkey and the Ukrainian conflict between Russia and the West. Romania and Bulgaria will make efforts to assert their interests in these developing situations, but as in the past, will react to rather than shape the outcomes.... What is the relationship between Romania and Bulgaria?Bulgarian-Romanian relations are foreign relations between Bulgaria and Romania. Bulgaria has an embassy in Bucharest. Romania has an embassy in Sofia and three honorary consulates (in Burgas, Silistra and Vidin). There are 7,336 Bulgarians who are living in Romania and around 4,575 Romanians living in Bulgaria.
Is there border control between Romania and Bulgaria?The Bulgaria–Romania border is an internal border of the European Union. However, as of 2022 neither country is part of the Schengen Area. As a result, border controls are conducted between the two countries, albeit often jointly (once per crossing).
Were Romania and Bulgaria part of the Soviet Union?Shortly before World War II, they were filled with ethnic and territorial hostilities. During the communist era, although their relations improved, Bulgaria and Romania followed different foreign policies, as the former was loyal to the Soviet Union while the latter sought greater autonomy from it.
