PM after Security Council Meeting: Bulgaria will not Expel Russian Diplomats

After the Council of Ministers' Security Council meeting on 30^th of March, Prime Minister Boyko Borissov announced that Russian diplomats will not be expelled for the time being. Bulgaria has shown solidarity and has given its full support to Britain, he added.

Bulgaria does not think there is a good reason to expel Russian diplomats or technical representatives from the country, the prime minister said.

He added that the UK should provide further evidence of a possible Russian intervention in the poisoning of Sergei and Julia Skripal with neuropathic substance at Salisbury. According to the Prime Minister, Bulgaria is showing its full solidarity with Britain, but there is still no evidence of any possible Russian intervention.

The recall of the Bulgarian ambassador in Moscow is a move that shows how seriously our country perceives everything that happens as tension between Russia and the Western countries, and that this move has been coordinated with our European partners.

According to Borissov, the tension between Moscow and the West and the raging diplomatic war is unprecedented, and he personally predicts that tensions will continue to rise in the next few weeks. It is important that communication channels remain open, the Bulgarian PM said. Borissov pointed out that there are many smoldering conflicts around Bulgaria and that our country should act with care.
