“A comprehensive analysis is needed of the threats, not just with regard to the Middle East and the Black Sea region, but other regions and points of conflict as well,” Minister Karakachanov said. “With regard to these threats which could arise from the Balkan region, Bulgaria, with its expertise can be extremely helpful,” he added.
