The joint air policing has long been planned, but there is no direct threat to Bulgaria, Minister of Defense Dragomir Zakov said. The three Dutch F-35 fighter aircraft will perform standard surveillance missions in Bulgaria, said Minister Zakov. Dragomir Zakov was adamant that only Bulgarian aircraft can use force, provided the Defense Minister authorizes such use.
