They ardently recommend that we continue the exploitation of the MiG-29 jets,” said Minister of Defence in the caretaker cabinet Dimitar Stoyanov during a hearing at the parliamentary defence committee, and went on to quote an official letter from the US Air Force.
He denied the claims that the caretaker government had not done enough to carry out triangular transactions so that Bulgaria can provide Ukraine with weaponry in exchange for Western weapons from the allies.
