Bulgaria to send its first military aid to Ukraine

Bulgaria will send its first military aid to Ukraine since the start of the full-scale Russian invasion. — Reuters reports.

Bulgarian parliament approved a list of arms. A total of 148 lawmakers from the 240-seat parliament voted to send the aid.

As Reuters comments, Bulgaria was one of the few EU countries not to send aid. The reason was the Russia-friendly Socialist party, a coalition partner in the previous government, blocked a proposal in May 2022.
