Stepan Chernyavsky, an MP from President Volodymyr Zelensky’s party "Servant of the People", has asked Bulgaria to continue the hotel accommodation programme for Ukrainian refugees. Earlier, Bulgaria’s government announced that the programme ends on May 31. 

MP Chernyavsky called for the extension to the hotel accommodation programme during his meetings in Sofia with MPs from the National Assembly Committee on Foreign Policy, the Labor and Social Policy Committee, the National Assembly Committee on Defense, as well as with the government headquarters for refugees. "The refugees residing in Bulgaria are worried that they will have to leave hotels at the end of May. The relocation of nearly a hundred thousand refugees would make people and children feel stressed. That is why, at a meeting with the government headquarters for refugees, I called on Bulgaria’s authorities to continue the hotel accommodation programme for war refugees". said MP Chernyavsky.
