“We are abiding by the agreement, it is being breached by Skopje,” said Defence Minister Krasimir Karakachanov in response to the statement by Macedonian Prime Minister Zoran Zaev that Bulgaria was violating the goodneighbour agreement with its refusal to support the start of EU accession negotiations by the Republic of North Macedonia.
Together with President Rumen Radev and senior officers, Krasimir Karakachanov took part in the military ritual on Archangel's All Souls’ Day, honouring the memory of the fallen Bulgarian soldiers.
