Ukraine is not fighting only for its territory, for their country, but also for the whole of Europe, Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov said in an interview with CNBC, part of which was published by the government's press service. The Prime Minister is optimistic that at the upcoming European Council there will be a positive decision on a new aid package for Ukraine.

Denkov points out in the interview that there is active cooperation with Greece and Romania aimed at significant infrastructure development that is to boost economic unification of the region. These actions are part of attempts to strengthen South-Eastern Europe and NATO's eastern flank, Denkov says, quoted by BTA.

In the meantime, Minister of Defense Todor Tagarev informed the competent parliamentary committee that the 100 armored vehicles that the country will send to Ukraine are still in stock. Funding is being sought for their transportation to Ukraine, BGNES reported.
