The Ministry of Defense continues to work on agreements adopted at the NATO Summit in Warsaw in July 2016, aimed at increasing security in the Black Sea region. This was announced by the press center of the ministry in relation to false comments over increasing NATO’s military presence in the Black Sea.

The current caretaker government continues developing the principles of Bulgaria’s defense policy in the spirit of conventions adopted at the NATO summit in Warsaw, the statement of the Ministry reads.
