“BSP-UNITED LEFT” expresses its strong concern about the escalation of the conflict in Ukraine.
US President Joe Biden's decision to authorize the use of long-range weapons against Russia could have extremely severe consequences for the entire region. Bulgaria is located only 400 kilometers from Odessa, and any change in the situation has an immediate impact on the security environment in our country. This is stated in the Declaration of the Coalition Council of the BSP-UNITED LEFT, sent to the media.
We call on the Bulgarian authorities and security services to monitor what is happening with increased attention and to take all measures to guarantee the security of the country.
The attempt to make the war irreversible is a threat to the entire continent.
Strikes deep inside Russian territory dramatically increase the threat of a much larger war.
It is now obvious that this conflict must end immediately. His end cannot come by military means.
The only way out is peace negotiations and a ceasefire. "BSP-UNITED LEFT" from the first day of the war there has been a consistent stand for peace. The war could have been stopped at the outset if the voices of common sense had not been deliberately silenced. A hawkish approach to politics never leads to a happy ending.
We call on the Bulgarian government to publicly express its disagreement with this decision and not to become part of the forces that incite the conflict. The Bulgarians clearly show that they are for peace. It's time for their voices to be heard!
