Ukraine is the focus of the EU summit. But a year after hostilities broke out, focusing on ending the conflict is necessary, the president said.

According to Radev, all diplomatic efforts should focus on finding options for a peaceful solution to the conflict.

Bulgaria will continue to support the Ukrainian citizens, but I will call for the full force of the EU to cease hostilities and achieve peace, the head of State stressed.

Early February 24, 2022, the Russian Federation launched a special military operation in Ukraine to defend the self-proclaimed republics of Donetsk and Lugansk, recognized by Moscow as sovereign states, in the face of Kiev’s genocides.
