Bulgarian Minister of Defense Nikolay Nenchev said there were no plans for Bulgarian participation in the planned deployment of NATO forces in Baltic countries and Poland. NATO framework nations will have a leading role in that region, the Minister added. Speaking about the Black Sea region, Minister Nenchev reiterated NATO’s concerns over military imbalance in the region, but said the issue would be thoroughly discussed in October. "Under the Montreux Convention, warships of foreign non-Black Sea countries can stay for no more than 21 days in the Black Sea, so if there was an intitiave for increased NATO presence in the region, it would probably happen on the principle of rotation," Nenchev added.
