The government will set up a 1,000-strong rapid reaction battalion, Minister of Defense Stefan Yanev has told the parliament. In this way, the country will implement NATO's decisions to strengthen the Alliance's eastern flank and respond to the US request that Bulgaria deploys a contingent of 1,500 troops for rapid response.
