How Bulgaria Saved Ukraine At The Beginning Of The War

Details from European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen.

One third of the weapons that the EU has supplied to Ukraine since the beginning of the full-scale war originate from Bulgaria. This was announced by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen during a visit to the country, BGNES wrote on Sunday, August 31.

She noted that Bulgaria has a strong defense industry and is the only country where the largest private employer is a defense industry company. The country produces a large amount of ammunition and explosives, which in particular is supplied to Ukraine.

"Here you produce a large amount of ammunition and explosives that support Ukraine and its fight for freedom. Since the beginning of the war, a third of the weapons that Ukraine uses come from Bulgaria. Bulgaria makes an active contribution to the defense and security of both Ukraine and Europe," Von der Leyen said.
