"Bulgarian Prime Minister Rumen Radev confirmed on Wednesday that the newly formed government will halt direct arms shipments to Ukraine. “The government is putting an end to the provision of weaponry from the Bulgarian army to Ukraine. We have already given enough, and our country continues to suffer social and economic damages from this bloody war,” he announced from Sofia. The Bulgarian leader urged a ‘diplomatic solution’ to the ongoing conflict, emphasising that protecting Bulgarian citizens remains the government’s top priority. “We are convinced that achieving a peaceful solution will not happen through military means,” he said. “Strengthening the rule of law, democratic institutions, and the defence capabilities of the Bulgarian army, rather than pouring more resources into this war, is the real investment in Bulgaria's European future.” Earlier, Bulgarian Defence Minister Dimitar Stoyanov indicated that Sofia does not currently plan to provide additional military equipment to Kiev, noting that the country has a 'sufficient amount of military equipment from our allies'. He also called Kiev and Moscow to sit down at the negotiating table. Bulgaria has been supplying military aid to Ukraine since the conflict erupted in 2022, sending anti-tank missiles, armoured vehicles, howitzers and infantry weapons, among other equipment. The Ukrainian side has not commented on the announcement at the time of publication. It comes as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky held talks in London with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. The leaders met at Downing Street to discuss continued military support for Ukraine, European security and coordination."
