I do not see any foreign policy logic for the signing of the agreement with Ukraine by the caretaker government, which will probably have about two more months of mandate. I do not see such logic, as well as in our participation in Trump's Peace Council. Perhaps this rather has domestic political aspects and some political forces gain or lose dividends. These are actions that put Bulgaria in an unstable foreign policy state. He said this on the air of “Good Morning, Europe“ former Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Milen Keremedchiev.

He comments on the war in the Middle East and the inconsistent behavior of US President Donald Trump.

His statements are different every day, but his statement that it is possible that the US will withdraw from Iran in two or three weeks makes more sense, because the United States Congress voted to authorize President Trump for two months to carry out this military operation. At the moment, a little more than half has passed, so there are really three weeks left until the authorized time. After this period ends, Trump must return to Congress and request a new extension – the US legislature must consider and decide whether to extend the military operation for 30 or more days.

According to Milen Keremedchiev, the US Congress will probably not be so favorable as to give Donald Trump permission to continue the hostilities.

“We see that this morning fuel prices in the US reached $4 per gallon, which is probably really stressing American voters. There is a 37% drop in trust in Trump by Republicans and this is solely and solely due to high fuel prices, which are not so affected by the war in the Middle East, since the US does not use oil from the Persian Gulf, only 2% of oil imports come from there. However, stock market prices are rising, it is normal that prices rise, and with them the tension“, the former Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs also commented.
