when Bulgaria will join the European Union?
372165
Bulgaria is scheduled to join in 2007.  However, the EU has the option to delay their entry for a year to 2008.  There has been some discussiong that this delay might occur especially in light of Bulgaria's problems with organized crime but I think it will probably still happen in 2007.

After the Roman and Byzantine empires , Bulgaria is the first kingdom in Europe. So Bulgarians are Europeans more than any other European citizens can be.

I lived in Britain and Ireland for a good number of years, and can tell you the situation in Britain is, if anything, worse than here ... they're swamped with moslems and illegal immigrants from mainly the Eastern European countries, and can barely cope ... the Brits are getting more and more frustrated, and I reckon it won't be long before things will boil over ...\n\nWhen Romania and Bulgaria join the EU in January 2007, things will get worse ... Britain is already the target of illegal immigration from Romania in particular, and after Jan 2007 these people can enter at will .. there are organized gangs of human smugglers in Romania who are also keeping their eyes on the illegal immigration and amnesty situation in the United States ... and after 2007, we can prepare for an exodous from Romania and Bulgaria into the United States as well ... so be prepared ....

I think in 10 years, alot depends from the situation in general in the Balcans, but Croatia is joining soon, Macedonia is officially a candidate, so I think in 10 years it will be the moment of Bosnia

I think it will eventually. Turkey has cleaned up its human rights record IMMENSELY, and its economy is already better than several current EU member states in Eastern Europe. I think people are nervous about letting it in because its population is growing so quickly and because it is a mostly Muslim state. To tell the truth, I don't think either arguement will hold up much longer. Aging Europe could use the population boost, and the great majority of Europe doesn't profess (or at least practice) ANY religion anymore, Christian or otherwise.\n\nThe only way I can see that Turkey WOULDN'T join is if the EU put them off so long that they finally threw up their hands and gave up. Either that, or if they EU fell apart because of infighting before Turkey got the chance to join.

Good question. Most answers are wrong. The Union is a spiritual, not a geographical idea. It is about a state of law, governments that are responsible to the people, protection of human and civil rights, control of dangers to the citizens, working for welfare and peace. Any country that fulfills the Copenhagen criteria should join: Turkey, Romania, Ukraine. Putin of Russia has said that he is waiting at the door of the Union. Do not let him wait too long. Yes, off course: New Zealand, Australia can join and each state of the USA.

Bulgaria is trying to become EU member 2007 so i would guess their stock exchange http://www.bse-sofia.bg/ has to be according EU legislation. Bulgaria is not member of euro currency yet, they use own currency, Exchange Rate: 2006-06-20 1 USD 1.55336 BGN \nbr,\nRP

It should in January 2007, but in my oppinion many requests from the EU where unsolved (corruption, infrastructure, agriculture, medical issues, and i think some education) so it will be delayed

Croatia will join EU in the next round after it cleans its act up. They've had a few internal political hiccups along the way, but I think they will come out fine. Croatia will have positive economical effects, and I would say tourism will become one of its main industries. Political, will be interesting.. Especially if Serbia decides to apply for EU. Not familiar enough with Barry's theory to comment.

US:     298,444,215 (estimate, July 2006)\nEU:     456,953,258 (estimate, July 2006)\nEurope: 525,009,790 (estimate, July 2006)\n\nNote that the EU is not quite the same as Europe, hence the different figure.  You need to add in the non-EU states and dependencies, which are: Albania, Andorra, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Channel Islands, Croatia, Faroe Islands, Gibraltar, Iceland, Isle of Man, Lichtenstein, Macedonia, Monaco, Norway, Romania, San Marino, Serbia & Montenegro, Switzerland and Vatican City.\n\nArguably, Belarus, Moldova, Ukraine and parts of Turkey are geographically European as well, but they're not politically at the moment so I haven't included them.

Its up in the air at the moment.  they have to meet certain requirement, prerequisites.. They do have things in their culture that Europe doesnt want in the union so there are talks and negotiations.  We should see something about it soon but not sure when.
