“I think, what we have done so far for Ukraine, at the level of supporting refugees, at the level of funds that we have invested so far in humanitarian aid, that we fix their equipment that cannot be fixed in elsewhere, let’s do it. in Bulgaria, “he said.
The Prime Minister recalled that Bulgaria supported “all measures when it comes to sanctions against Russia.”
“I think the Bulgarian state has done enough in this direction, and we will continue to support them,” Petkov promised and added that the issue of arms supplies to Ukraine should not be returned every two weeks.
