"I would like to tell the Bulgarians not to be afraid of the truth and to think about what would happen if the Kremlin won this war," said Vsevolod Chentsov, Ukraine's ambassador to the EU, in an interview with BNR.

He calls on the people in this country to think about the questions: "Do they want to live the way Russians currently live, subjected to arrests and repressions? Do they want their standard of living to drop continuously and their neighbors to fear them? Do they want to bury their children and husbands?” Speaking about the topic of sending arms to Ukraine and President Radev's words that Bulgaria would not export ammunition, Vsevolod Chentsov said: "The choice is easy - either help Ukraine and win together, or wait until you need to send your soldiers to the front.”
