Bulgaria's assistance to Ukraine

Bulgaria has been providing various forms of assistance to Ukraine since the early days of the full-scale Russian invasion.

Earlier, the Bulgarian parliament ratified an agreement to supply armored personnel carriers to Ukraine.

Following this, Bulgarian Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov expressed confidence that the majority in parliament would override the veto imposed by the country's president, Rumen Radev, on the agreement to supply armored vehicles to Ukraine.

Additionally, Bulgaria will provide Ukraine with around 150,000 euros in humanitarian aid due to the challenging situation caused by the full-scale Russian invasion.
