Ukraine’s ambassador to Bulgaria Vitaly Moskalenko has once again called on this country to provide Ukraine with Soviet-era weapons.

“Bulgaria should be more determined and should act in line with the whole of Europe and the Euro-Atlantic world with regard to the war in Ukraine,” he said in an interview with Nova TV. Ambassador Moskalenko pointed to the fact that Sofia supports his country’s just fight for freedom and independence, as well as the sanctions against Russia. Vitaly Moskalenko warned that the offensive against Ukraine is affecting the whole of Europe and that there exists a nuclear danger. He also commented on the bomb attack in which Daria Dugin, daughter of Putin’s close ally Alexander Dugin was killed. “It is in Putin’s style to accuse Ukraine of the killing of Daria Dugina,” he said.
