Bulgaria’s National Assembly is expected to decide whether the country should send military aid to Ukraine. The coalition government discussed the issue at an extraordinary council. However, the two-hour council ended without any concrete decision and joint statement.
Before the meeting the Head of the Prime Minister’s Political Cabinet Lena Borislavova said she did not believe there would be a break-up of the coalition. Lena Borislavova also commented on the words of President Rumen Radev who said that decision-makers must take into account the security of Bulgarians: “The conflict is very close to the borders with Poland and Romania. However, these countries are sending military aid to Ukraine. Their national security depends on the collective security of Europe and NATO”, Lena Borislavova said.
