The US Embassy in Bulgaria expressed "concern" over President Radev's words about Russian Crimea

Recently, the head of the Bulgarian state, Rumen Radev, announced that the Crimean peninsula is now Russian. He made such a statement when answering a question during a political debate. Then Radev repeated this thesis, despite the reaction of Ukraine. In response, the US Embassy in Bulgaria expressed "deep concern" with President Radev's words about Russian Crimea.

It expressed its position on the Facebook page of the American diplomatic mission in Sofia.



The United States, the G7, the European Union and NATO have always been united in expressing their position that Crimea remains Ukrainian despite the continued Russian occupation.

- said the embassy, ​​clearly hinting that Bulgaria, which is a member of the EU and NATO, is moving away from the "general line of the party."

They noted that the countries that took part in the Crimean Platform summit, including the Bulgarian representatives, agreed with this. American diplomats noted that they did not and will never recognize Russia's desire to legitimize the "seizure" of the peninsula.

At the same time, Rumen Radev is leading by a large margin in the second round of the presidential elections in Bulgaria. This means that he will be re-elected and will remain the head of state.

Although the final vote count has not yet been completed, exit polls show that 66-67 percent of voters voted for him in the second round. This is confirmed by the preliminary results announced by the Central Election Commission of the republic. Reuters claims that the main reason for Radev's victory was his anti-corruption program. But, perhaps, his position on Russia also played a role. Many Bulgarian voters supported Radev's message that the endless conflict with Russia and the sanctions (which still practically do not work) are counterproductive.

      In the presidential elections in Bulgaria, a couple - a candidate for president and a candidate for vice president - compete. And then it turned out interesting! Rumen Radev air force general, and Iliyana Yotova is a humanitarian. Competitive nominated their candidates - Prof. Gerdzhikov is a humanitarian, and Nevena Miteva air force colonel! bully During the public debate, the couple's wallpaper was passed away with dignity! good The journalists didn’t spare them the burning questions! All the same, Radev has more experience, he has already spent one term as president. hi

          As for the Americans, they are worried in vain: if Radev is re-elected, and everything will roll along the old Russophobic pro-American / pro-Western rut. laughing

            Radev himself is not "re-elected". We elect him, for the difference from some other countries, where the results of the "elections" are drawn. And so, the United States express their opinion, Radev his. Fine! request

Although, perhaps, I did not understand you and you did not mean Russia and Belarus, but the United States, that it is the United States who "draws the results", and the "mummified leader" is in power? laughing

                  As for the stamps, I did not glue them, but expressed my opinion, which is based on the fact that your today's "rank" is much higher than what it was before. Or is it not so? smile

                  As for the Russian-Russians, they are different... There were Gastello and Matrosov, there were Vlasovites and policemen. There is Chichvarkin, Kasparov, Chirikova and Navalny. But there is also tens of millions of real patriots of Russia. They are all Russian. Present and former. And everyone has different concepts. And I nowhere and never Did NOT say that everyone has the same concepts as mine. No need to lie openly! smile

                  Valery, I have been working on the project for 4 years. I even wrote a post on VO, and my comments on this matter are probably several hundred! The situation with UP is presented in Russia in an extremely distorted way!

                  Given that the benefits of Bulgaria and its people would be obvious.

                  You are wrong! It was not in the interests of Bulgaria to confront the US and the EU! The EU is our main trading partner! The sanctions, the fines of the European Commission, the stoppage of trade relations, would inflict bruises many times greater than the potential profits from UP! And he would not have worked in those conditions. But the Balkan Stream was built, is working and is making a profit! There are obvious benefits from it for Bulgaria! hi We have achieved it! good

We lived for a year without a government, during this time we held elections 3 times! And nothing fell apart, life went on normally, all state systems were working properly! The existence of the state does not depend on one single "irreplaceable" person! And Radev is a fine fellow, he said a circumstantial fact!
      Unheard of liberty, perhaps they need something from us, or something began to "reach".

          Bulgaria's GDP growth is expected to reach 3.8% this year, 4.1% next year and stabilize at 3.5% in 2023. This is stated in the autumn economic forecast of the European Commission. And if the new government of the technocrat Kiril Petkov starts to fail, the result will probably be higher! Kiril Petkov and the ego team will be able to, they are very talented people!

          Isn't that what happened with the South Stream gas pipeline, and all Bulgarians are on their hind legs.

          Yuri, if I'm not mistaken, we have discussed this question 100 times already ?! Enough for you to carry the blizzard! The gas pipeline is working properly, the state bears profit, everything is fine with it! Before the launch of the Balkan Stream, Bulgaria received about $ 60 million a year for the transit of Russian gas. In 2021, this item of the country's income exceeded $ 94 million. hi

              Well, what does the income and GDP of Bulgaria have to do with it? I'm talking about Thomas, and you are talking about Eremu. I am talking about your political independence, which you do not have, as your uncle from across the ocean tells you, then you will do.

              Yuri, you are transferring your everyday concepts to politicians! And politics is guided by interests alone! So, we do what is in our interests, whether you like it or not, it doesn't matter. The GDP itself said that there are no completely independent countries in the world! Of course, big countries have more opportunities. I can't argue with this. Yes
              And of course you can live on your knees, especially when you pay for it.

              About your "getting up from your knees", I heard and even saw ... lol As for us, it is not in our interests to confront the EU and the US. This would be disastrous for our economy.
              Well, this is your business, to which God you pray, and by the way, not even yours, to which one they say, to that one you will pray.

              We have been praying to Christ since the middle of the 9th century. And to whom you are praying, I do not want to comment. I saw people sitting on their knees, praying to the leader ... a sad picture, it must be done. No.

      The politician turns his nose in the wind.

      There is nothing like that. Radev has spoken in that sense more than once. He believes that it is necessary to seek a dialogue between the EU and the Russian Federation, in accordance with the existing situation. This is the correct, reasonable proposal!

    In the presidential ballot held on Sunday, the current president, Gen. Rumen Radev, won from a very significant distance. This will be the ego's second and final presidential term! In Bulgaria, "zeroing" is not possible. wink Rumen Radev is known for calling Crimea a Russian territory twice during the election campaign, and also criticized the anti-Russian sanctions of the European Union. Because of Radev's words, the Bulgarian ambassador was summoned to the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry. Kiev demanded that Sofia refute the statement of the President of the country. However, Radev emphasizes that in fact Crimea is Russian territory. Radev is 58 years old, he is a professional military man. In 1987 Radev graduated from the Georgiy Benkovsky Bulgarian University of the Armed Forces, becoming the best graduate in his course. Then he studied in the USA at the Maxwell Officer School, graduated from the Defense and Staff College of the Bulgarian Armed Forces named after Georgiy Sava Rakovsky, becoming the best graduate there as well.
    In the Bulgarian Air Force, Radev went from a junior pilot of the 15th IAP to the commander of the Air Force, and received the military rank of Major General. Bulgarian Air Force Radev commanded in 2014-2016. Radev's position on Crimea is all the more respectful since he is not an officer of the old school: he graduated from the school at the end of the socialist regime in Bulgaria, and received further military education in the United States. Considering Radev's stance on anti-Russian sanctions and Crimea, one can expect that another relatively loyal government to Russia will continue to exist in Eastern Europe.

          Main article: Bulgaria in World War I
          The Bulgarian kingdom entered the war on October 14, 1915, declaring war on Serbia. The reason was that Bulgaria was still unhappy with its defeat in July 1913 against Serbia, Greece and Romania. She signed a defensive alliance with the Ottoman Empire on August 19, 1914. It was the last country to join the Central Powers, which Bulgaria did in October 1915 by declaring war on Serbia. She invaded Serbia along with German and Austro-Hungarian troops. Bulgaria made claims to the region of Vardar Macedonia, which then belonged to Serbia after the Balkan Wars (1912-1913) and (from the point of view of Bulgaria) the expensive Bucharest Peace Treaty (1913) [6]. As a condition for joining the First World War, on the side of the Central Powers, Bulgaria was given the right to regain this territory [7].

          Main article: Bulgaria in World War II
          Initially, the Third Bulgarian Kingdom in World War II was an ally of Germany and on March 1, 1941 it joined the Axis forces. On April 6, 1941, Bulgarian troops, in alliance with Germany, Italy and Hungary, took part in the aggression against Yugoslavia and Greece (see Invasion of Yugoslavia and Second Invasion of Greece). After this operation, Eastern Serbia, part of Macedonia and the Aegean coast were annexed to Bulgaria. On December 13, 1941, Bulgaria declared war on the United States and Great Britain, and throughout the war, Bulgarian aviation actively opposed the Anglo-American aviation forces in Europe (mainly to protect the oil regions of allied Romania). Bulgarian troops did not participate in the invasion of the USSR, limiting themselves to providing the Germans with military bases on their territory. On September 5, 1944, the USSR declared war on Bulgaria [1] and invaded its territory on September 8. The Bulgarian army did not put up resistance to the Soviet troops [1]. The Bulgarian communists, whose positions in the country were quite strong, helped the Soviet invasion, a coup d'etat took place in the country on September 9, [1] a number of leaders of the pro-German regime, including Prince Kirill (brother of the deceased Tsar Boris III and regent of the juvenile Tsar Simeon II), former Prime Minister Bogdan Filov and others, were arrested (later interned in the USSR, and upon returning to Bulgaria were sentenced to death by the People's Court) and the government of the Fatherland Front, headed by Kimon Georgiev, came to power. The Georgiev government announced an alliance with the USSR and declared war on Germany. On September 15, Soviet troops occupied Sofia. Subsequently, the Bulgarian army took part in the war against Germany in Yugoslavia, Hungary and Austria.

          One of the founding countries of the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council. In May 1994 she joined the Partnership for Peace program. The country faced the question of membership in the North Atlantic Alliance at the end of 1996. Accession to NATO at that time was supported by 20% of the population. On February 17, 1997, the People's Assembly of Bulgaria almost unanimously adopted a decision on the country's entry into the Alliance. In the same year, at the Madrid summit, Bulgaria received the status of a candidate country for NATO membership. Since March 29, 2004 Bulgaria is a NATO member. It became part of the Alliance as part of a large-scale expansion of the Alliance, which took place on the eve of the Istanbul Summit.

        On Thursday's debate live on national television and radio:

        Rumen Radev:
        “Russia cannot be a model of our development, but Russia cannot be our enemy, at least because in the memory of our citizens it is the liberator of our people. relations between Russia and the EU have been disrupted and in a critical state.

        Atanas Gerdzhikov:
        “Relations with Russia should be pragmatic, but in no case should the relationship be divided into Russophiles and Russophobes, as this will be a politicized attitude towards a large country with a huge economy. We are interested in working with Russia and other large countries.

            I am more pleased that there is competition and there are quality applicants! There is choice and freedom of choice! hi There is an update, new, capable people are coming!

            Bravo Bulgaria!

            The future Premier, Kiril Petkov, is especially happy! Bulgaria is a parliamentary republic, ruled by the Government and Parliament.

            41 years old. Graduated from the department of finance at the University of Vancouver. Masters in Harvard, ranking in the top 10% of the most successful undergraduates. Worked for a Canadian company with a turnover of 6 billion. dollars. Develops a successful project in the field of innovation. Ego's own company, Proviotic, holds several patents on biotechnology in the US 2018 Kiril Petkov together with his father finance and organize the rescue operation of climber Boyan Petrov in the Himalayas.
            Kiril Petkov is a technocrat, dialogical, very charming. During the debates, he showed a valuable quality - the ability to admit his mistakes! This is a rarity among politicians. And the probable minister of finance will be his colleague Asen Vasilev, probably the best financier in Bulgaria. And as we know, a good financier at the price of gold! bully

            We hope that they will work successfully, for the good of the country! Good luck to them! hi

    In an amicable way, all relations between Russia and other countries should begin with a response from the Foreign Ministry of a particular country to the question: "Whose Crimea?"
    If the answer is Russian, you can buy tomatoes from this country and sell gas to them.
    If the answer is negative - "let's go, nafig, Happy New Year" .......... we will grow tomatoes ourselves, and apples, and bacon, and parmesan, and Moldovan wine, and Greek olives, and Brazilian coffee, etc. ... American greens. wink

    Radev said nothing new. Since 2016, he has been repeating everywhere that Crimea is de facto Russian, because the Russian flag is flying there. And everything else, legal or illegal, in general, does not apply to Bulgaria. And now both the Ukrainians and the Americans, for some reason, are excited, but they can calmly write and harass the paper for declarations, well, as long as they fit. We have different agendas and it is important for us that the hitherto managing thieves were removed and Radev was the core of the changes. That's why they chose him for a second term. And because he is a tough guy, a fighter pilot and he does not care about the oligarchy and all the corruptionists - he has a personal war against corruption and the merging of the state and the oligarchs, and the people supported him.
    This is how the internal political situation in Bulgaria and Crimea is concerned.

    In response, the US Embassy in Bulgaria expressed "deep concern" with President Radev's words about Russian Crimea.

    But if the United States insists itself that Crimea is "Ukrainian", and forces all of its subjects to recognize this, then why the US and NATO ships do not enter Sevastopol, or the territorial waters of Crimea. The British tried once, but quickly changed their minds. So stop trending about Crimea.

    More interesting was the participation of Turkey in our elections where 90 voted for the Turkish candidate. The Turkish DPS party in the second round was backed up behind the scenes by Radev's opponent who received 000 fewer votes. Well, now the Turkish external minister Mevlut Chevusoglu congratulated Radev on the victory as if nothing had happened and the Turks had not sent any protest notes.

    In order not to interfere with the United States to deal with its internal problems. In order for them to have more desire to fight poverty within their country, fight against rising fuel prices, pay salaries to their soldiers on time without delays of several months - Russia needs to stop solving the problems of the United States instead of the United States itself. They do not need to urgently send tankers with diesel fuel, so that the price of fuel at the gas station does not suddenly rise. And in return for this, receive new sanctions. Let them somehow focus on their own problems. And then they will have less time to climb into other people's houses with their claims. Give the Americans the freedom to fight with themselves. And then their ambassador will mutter about something completely different, because the problem in the United States is not a crank, but we have our own in bulk. You need to solve your problems and not American ones.

      It is difficult to disagree with your reasoning.

      But the fact of the matter is that tankers with diesel fuel were urgently sent not as a gift to the Americans, but for green money. That is, someone took the opportunity and made money on it. And if it had not "helped the United States", he would not have made a profit. So this someone solved not only American problems, but first of all his own.
