On the second day of his official visit to Croatia, Bulgaria’s President Rumen Radev will visit the Bulgarian military cemetery in Vukovar, where 1,027 Bulgarian soldiers who died during World War II are buried. The memorial was destroyed during the breakup of Yugoslavia but was later restored.

"Bulgaria and Croatia have established themselves as key factors for security and stability in Southeast Europe", Rumen Radev said after his meeting with Croatia’s President Zoran Milanović.

"Relations between Bulgaria and Croatia are good and I do not see any challenges either now or in the future", Zoran Milanović said after the meeting.

It was also noted that in 2024, trade between the two countries increased by 50%.
