On his part, President Zelensky stated that all support is important and that his country will never forget Bulgaria’s help.

As regards the air raid the Bulgarian delegation witnessed today, the Ukrainian president pointed out that this showed the Bulgarian members of parliament what life is like for the Ukrainian citizens “in the coldest months of the year when the attacks are targeted at the energy infrastructure”. Rosen Zhelyazkov expressed concern over “the unprecedented military activities of the Russian Federation in the region of the Black Sea, and more specifically the increasing militarization of the Crimean Peninsula”, and added that Bulgaria does not recognize the illegal annexation of Crimea. 

Later, at a meeting with Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal, Rosen Zhelyazkov said that Bulgaria supports all twelve EU sanctions packages imposed on Russia "in response to its illegal military aggression against Ukraine".
