Two declarations condemning the recognition of the separatist Donetsk and Luhansk regions by Russia were read from the rostrum of the Bulgarian National Assembly. A text for a joint vote will be proposed in the coming days. 

The first declaration on behalf of the political parties "We continue to change", "There are such people" (ITN) and "Democratic Bulgaria", expressed concern over the situation and support for potential sanctions against Russia by partner countries.

The parliamentary group of GERB-SDS proposed a text in which, in addition to the support of Bulgaria for the territorial integrity of Ukraine, it is proposed that Bulgaria should introduce a relaxed regime for the import of Ukrainian goods.

In a statement of the parliamentary group of BSP for Bulgaria, BSP deputies say the time of diplomacy has not been exhausted and called for direct negotiations under the auspices of the UN.
