Attempts at disinformation because of Bulgaria's support for Ukraine are inadmissible, a position of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs reads. The reason for the position was a publication of the Russian ambassador Eleonora Mitrofanova in social networks from June 12, "in which hypotheses and assumptions are expressed about the support provided by Bulgaria to Ukraine".

"Bulgaria strongly condemns the unprecedented and unprovoked Russian military aggression against Ukraine and contributes to international efforts to support the country. We are consistent in our position of solidarity with the people of Ukraine, as well as in our unconditional support for the independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country," the position reads.

The aid provided to Ukraine is within legal norms. "Any attempts at propaganda and disinformation that compromise democratic values are unacceptable and inadmissible," the ministry added.
