The Supreme Administrative Court of Bulgaria has definitively refused Russian opposition activist and opponent of Russia’s war against Ukraine Alexander Stotzky political asylum in Bulgaria.
In its motives, the Supreme Administrative Court says that “there are no grounds to believe that the official authorities in the Russian Federation exercise indiscriminate mass repressions against citizens who, one way or another, express protest against the policy of the president.
