The ruling coalition will find a solution on providing aid to Ukraine that will be acceptable to the Bulgarian Socialist Party as well, National Assembly Speaker Nikola Minchev said. "I don't think that the resignation of the cabinet at this moment is good for the country. I hope that the BSP will not regard President Zelensky’s request (he asked Bulgaria to repair Ukrainian military equipment in Bulgarian military repair factories) as a reason to leave the coalition. We will see exactly what the needs are and how we can help", Nikola Minchev further said

The ruling coalition is expected to discuss the topic regarding the provision of military and technical assistance to Ukraine on Tuesday. The National Assembly is to take the final decision on Wednesday.
