Prime Minister of Bulgaria announced the refusal of the country to provide military assistance to Ukraine

67

Another European country, which is part of NATO, refused to provide military assistance to Ukraine. The announcement was made during the alliance's summit in Brussels.

Following Hungary, which refused to supply weapon to Ukraine, as well as to provide its territory for the transit of Western weapons to Ukrainian territory, Bulgaria announced the refusal of military assistance to Kiev. The corresponding statement was made in Brussels during the NATO summit, announced by Prime Minister Kiril Petkov.



Bulgaria is doing everything possible to support Ukraine, but without direct military assistance

- he said.

Thus, Petkov confirmed the earlier statement that Sofia would support Kyiv, but would not supply weapons. He did not explain the reasons for this decision. Earlier it was reported that the Bulgarian government agreed to deploy additional NATO forces in the country.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Zelensky, in his address to NATO, called on the alliance to hand over to the Kiev regime Tanks and planes, and in order not to seem too arrogant, he asked for only "every hundredth" tank and plane of the alliance. According to Zelensky, Ukraine itself is not able to buy it, since no one is selling it.

I ask you to reconsider your attitude, your grades and take care of safety. You can provide us with 1% of your aircraft, 1% of all your tanks, we cannot just buy it, such supplies depend only on the decision of NATO

- he said.

        So this option if supplied with carriages. belay The rights of a generalist mechanic will not help here. Something Kuleba is already far from the earth's soil, it feels like it is approaching the orbit of Mars somewhere.
        And he plans to fill all this with what he plans, or one gas station should be enough until destruction. Well, it's already like that, turned to the lyrics.

          You are reading minds. They ask for tanks, planes, but they don’t ask for fuel. A reasonable question arises who supplies fuel to the kaklam.

            In Bulgaria, not the richest country in Europe, not everything is going smoothly with regard to weapons, in short, they themselves do not have enough, and then the beggars from the independent must give something for this. So the Bulgarians say we did not sign up for this.

              The Bulgarians simply sold all the stocks from the time of the Warsaw Pact to Africa, the Middle East, etc. d ... And NATO standards are expensive to give them just like that. I sometimes read the Bulgarian newspaper Trud... They don't care at all, the main thing is to lower the prices for vegetable oil and heating bills. And they mourn that agriculture was ruined.

          Judging by the mood of my friends from Bulgaria - not only. The frankly pro-American government is quite aware of what the people think about it and the situation in Ukraine. And it seems that this "in the know" is already stronger than American influence. At least in this matter.

      Position of. Bulgarian authorities are connected with the special situation in this country. The majority of the population is pro-Russian, while at the same time 2/3 of the Bulgarians do not approve of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The Bulgarians themselves say that they respect Russia and Russians, but they speak unflatteringly about Putin's policy. The government as a whole takes into account the mood in society. Provides humanitarian assistance to Ukraine, accepts thousands of refugees. But the weapons from which Russian soldiers will die are not given. By the way, Ukrainians for Bulgarians are also eastern (read almost Russian) Slavs. Until recently, the majority of Bulgarians perceived all Russian speakers as Russians. As for oil and gas, Bulgaria has no problem buying it for rubles. It is even more profitable for them than in dollars and euros. There are oil and gas companies in Bulgaria with a Russian share, and the only oil refinery in the Balkans, in Burgas, belongs to Lukoil. At the same time, the Bulgarian authorities accelerated work on the jumper to Greece, from where the pipe goes to LNG - the Alexandroupolis terminal. Bulgarian have a 20% stake in this terminal. A third of pipeline deliveries are guaranteed by Azerbaijan. Yes, and Gazprom, although not though, supplies gas to Serbia and Hungary through the Balkan Stream, which is owned by the Bulgarian operator.
