American soldiers will be deployed to Bulgaria as part of NATO's plans for deterrence and defense, the US mission in the Alliance has informed on Twitter.
The announcement came days after Gen. Daryl Williams, commanding general of United States Army Europe and Africa, paid a visit to Bulgaria. He discussed topics related to the combat group stationed on Bulgarian territory. In order to support it, 750 servicemen from the armed forces of Italy with 50 units of military equipment are expected to relocate to Bulgaria by mid-August. Bulgaria will participate with a company of 140 soldiers and 5 officers.
