Radev

The statement of Bulgarian President Rumen Radev that Bulgaria should not provide weapons to Ukraine became headline news for the media in Kyiv and received a wide negative response in one of the most visited Ukrainian news channels on Telegram - NEXTA live.

"There must be a careful approach to this conflict, which directly affects everything. There are a number of revelations about where the Bulgarian weapons are going. I wonder how the Minister of Energy will explain to the Bulgarians that Bulgarian weapons are fueling this conflict." This was stated by President Rumen Radev before he left for Spain today.

"On this holiday, let us wish health, joy and prosperity in every Bulgarian home", said President Rumen Radev on the occasion of the Resurrection of Christ.

"Let's make our words and deeds lead to the spiritual and cultural rise of the Bulgarian people," the head of state wrote on his Facebook account.

Bulgarian President Rumen Radev will not remove the head of the National Security Service (NSS), General Emil Tonev.
