On Wednesday, at the start of a Council of Ministers meeting, Prime Minister Rumen Radev announced that Bulgaria would stop providing weapons to Ukraine. "We have already given enough," he said.

Bulgaria is to stop sending weapons to Ukraine, the Balkan country’s defense minister has announced.

The shift comes after Rumen Radev — a Russia-friendly former president and a longtime critic of military aid to Kyiv — won the Bulgarian parliamentary elections in April.
