Bulgarian Foreign Minister Daniel Mitov accused the parties that oppose the deployment of a NATO command center in Bulgaria, of “behavior bordering on criminality” and of “irresponsible instilling of hostility”. “Bulgaria is to enter in war with nobody”, Minister Mitov said for journalists during the EU Foreign Ministerial in Brussels. He refuted criticism that the government is not doing enough for the ethnic Bulgarians in the Ukraine, some of whom live in parts engaged in the conflict. “It is political outrage to use the distress of the people in those regions for political purposes. We have our engagements and for quite some time, too”, said Bulgaria’s top diplomat. He explained that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has instructed Bulgarian consulates in Ukraine to issue visas for the Bulgarians residing there with an alleviated procedure and that Bulgaria is also preparing a humanitarian aid for those who need help.
