"He has 20 years of experience in international security," Petkov said.
Zakov has been Bulgaria's ambassador to NATO since 2019 and has extensive expertise in the field of
international security.
In recent years, he has worked actively to impose a systematic approach to taking
decisions in the defence system, as well as to increase counter
disinformation," Petkov stressed.
