"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will also be evaluated, as well as the other ministries. But it is important that Bulgaria continues to be well received all over the world."

Thus, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mariya Gabriel, answered a journalist's question whether, after the rotation in the cabinet, there are plans to combine the posts of Prime Minister and Foreign Minister. She pointed out that in the agreement between GERB and PP-DB it is clearly written who will be what after the rotation and she does not think that one person should manage the whole process.

On the occasion of the controversies surrounding an upcoming trip of members of the government to the United States, the foreign minister commented that she saw no reason to question the organization of a state visit to the United States. According to her, the content and outcome of the meetings are important.

Mariya Gabriel is in Brussels to participate in an informal meeting of foreign ministers. "Bulgaria is extremely firm in its support for Ukraine," she said, adding that Bulgaria will support the general procurement of ammunition.
