The leader of DPS - New Beginning, Delyan Peevski, said that he is against the state continuing to support Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky. "All the money should go to Bulgarian citizens, everything should be inside for Bulgaria. We should make sure that Bulgaria is strong. Given that we do not have the opportunity to support anyone, we should first support our own people," he told journalists. "The government should have a clear position on Ukraine. It does not have a position, we have not heard a position," Peevski said regarding the results of yesterday's meeting of the Security Council at the Prime Minister's office.

"One cannot take a position in defense of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine just a few days ago and say the opposite today," Deputy Chairman of Democracy Rights and Freedoms – DPS, Valentin Tonchev, told journalists.
