Bulgaria and Ukraine will co-host the Second Black Sea Security Conference. The forum will be held in Sofia on April 15 within the framework of the International Crimea Platform. The event is organized by Bulgaria's and Ukraine's Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Defense in partnership with the Ukrainian Centre for Defense Strategies.

Russia's military aggression against Ukraine has seriously undermined the security of the Black Sea and Azov regions and has had a direct impact on European security, Bulgaria’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.

The conference will discuss the latest security developments in the Black Sea region, the consequences of the ongoing war in Ukraine and further steps to strengthen security in the region.

The implementation of the Ukrainian Peace Formula will also be an important aspect of the discussion.
