Bulgaria remains fully committed to the strong and unified response of NATO, the EU and the international democratic community to Russian military aggression against Ukraine. This is what acting Prime Minister Dimitar Glavchev wrote on his Facebook page, quoted by BTA, after he arrived in the Swiss resort of Bürgenstock, where he will participate in the First Summit for Peace in Ukraine.
Bulgaria continues to support Ukraine in its just cause to assert its right to freedom and independence and to independently choose its own security guarantees. Bulgaria also supports the Euro-Atlantic perspective of the Ukrainian country. Evidence of this is the Declaration of Support for Ukraine's NATO Membership adopted on July 6, 2023 by the National Assembly. Bulgaria welcomes the European Council's decision to start negotiations for Ukraine's accession to the Union and recognizes the important progress that the country has achieved, the Bulgarian Prime Minister points out.
In Bürgenstock, he was met by the President of the Swiss Confederation Viola Amherd and the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky.
At the heart of the forum is the "Formula for Peace" initiative, which was presented by the Ukrainian head of state on November 15, 2022, during the G-20 summit in Indonesia. This is a conceptual plan of ten points (ladder), the goal of which is to end the war in Ukraine and achieve a comprehensive, just and lasting peace, the basis of which is the preservation of the territorial integrity of Ukraine, Dimitar Glavchev states in his post.
The first summit for peace in Ukraine takes place in the Swiss resort of Bürgenstock. The leaders discuss the creation of a clear framework for ending the war, providing security guarantees, defining conditions for a post-war settlement, agreeing on the conditions for financing the reconstruction of Ukraine.
