Bulgaria will not participate in any way with military personnel on the territory of Ukraine. This was stated in a position by the Ministry of Defense.

A decision on the participation of Bulgarian troops in operations outside the territory of the country can only be taken by the National Assembly. Such a proposal was never on the agenda. All initiatives related to the training of Ukrainian military personnel are carried out outside the territory of Ukraine, adds the department.

The MoD recalls the decision of the National Assembly from December 9 last year.

"We have a set task and we can carry out training of Ukrainians for combat medics - up to 60 people in one year. It is planned that 4 groups of 15 people will be trained again in Bulgaria, not in Ukraine," the position also says.
