Iliana Iotova: There are no contradictions in the position on Ukraine

There are no contradictions in the position on Ukraine, said President Iliana Iotova in Burgas, where she attended the national naval exercise with international participation "Breeze 2026". Her comment was in connection with Prime Minister Rumen Radev's position that Bulgaria will not participate in the Coalition of the Willing in support of Ukraine and the subsequent scandal over whether Foreign Minister Velislava Petrova had signed the declaration on the country's participation in the coalition in Kyiv.

Iliana Iotova pointed out that documents such as the Kyiv Declaration are not subject to discussion during the forums, there is no voting and no signatures are required. "The most accurate position of Bulgaria was expressed by Prime Minister Rumen Radev at several major world forums," the head of state also said.
