The Chair of the NATO Military Committee, Admiral Giuseppe Cavo Dragone, arrived in Bulgaria at the invitation of the country's Chief of Defence, Admiral Emil Efimov, the Ministry of Defence announced.


On 15 July, at the Novo Selo training ground, Admiral Dragone will observe a demonstration of the activities of the Alliance's Multinational Battle Group, hosted by Bulgaria, as well as a static display of the allied formation's weapons and equipment.


The joint flight training exercise "Thracian Star 2025", hosted by the Bulgarian Air Force, began a few days ago at the 22nd Air Base in Bezmer. Crews from Greece, Romania, the United States and the Multinational Battle Group in Bulgaria (with Italy as the framework nation) are participating in the exercise.
