“No one has raised the issue of deploying military bases in Bulgaria”, President Radev said after the water blessing ceremony on Epiphany. Rumen Radev voiced hopes that the Ukrainian crisis would be solved with diplomatic means. Bulgaria’s head of state Radev welcomed the government’s intentions to intensify the dialogue with the Republic of North Macedonia. President Radev noted again that the constitutional protection of the rights of Macedonian Bulgarians and giving up hate speech would speed up the process.
