Bulgaria’s Premier Boyko Borissov expressed great concern about the recent developments in the Black Sea and called on the countries to show prudence and refrain from actions that would trigger a military conflict. Sailing warships into the Black Sea would inevitably result in a huge crisis, Premier Borissov said in connection with information of foreign media that the USA intended to sail more warships into the Black Sea in relation to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Possible military conflict would impede the negotiations about diversification and fulfillment of the Turkish Stream gas pipeline project and would affect negatively tourism which is very important for Bulgaria’s economy. Premier Borissov told journalists at the Bulgarian National Assembly that the Black Sea must be used for tourism, gas pipeline projects and sailing.
