"Bulgaria will continue to support Ukraine with all the tools available at its disposal," President of the National Assembly Rosen Zhelyazkov said at a meeting with the Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Ruslan Stefanchuk.

The two met within the framework of the EU Conference of Speakers in Prague, Czechia. Zhelyazkov pointed out that Russia's war against Ukraine undermines significantly the security of Europe in general and the Black Sea countries in particular. Stefanchuk thanked Bulgaria for its consistent position and support for Ukraine's Euro-Atlantic integration.

He also said that the decision adopted by the Bulgarian National Assembly last year to provide military and technical assistance to Ukraine was a proof of Bulgaria’s position.
