Bulgarian-Ukrainian associations and non-governmental organizations are organizing marches in the evening in Sofia, Plovdiv and Veliko Tarnovo on the occasion of the third anniversary since the start of the war in Ukraine on February 24.

The Kremlin's terror has unprecedented dimensions and this is blatant nuclear blackmail. The attempt to destroy the Chernobyl sarcophagus is a danger to Europe and the world, said the Ambassador of Ukraine to Bulgaria Olesya Ilashchuk in an interview for bTV. On the occasion of 3 years of direct Russian aggression, the diplomat added that Ukraine stands, fights and will continue to do so.

The diplomat said that Ukrainians like no one in the world want peace. "For us, this is the most important thing and Ukrainians like no one else want this peace to happen now, but the most important thing is for this peace to be fair. Just a treaty for the sake of the treaty itself is not a guarantee of security," Ilashchuk emphasized.
