Bulgaria has expressed its willingness to open its airspace for Russian President Vladimir Putin, in the event that he travels to Budapest for a summit with American President Donald Trump. The announcement was made by Bulgarian Foreign Minister Georg Georgiev during the EU Foreign Affairs Council. Georgiev mentioned that logistical details will be discussed after the official confirmation of the meeting date. Although Bulgaria is part of the International Criminal Court and NATO, the minister emphasized the importance of supporting peace efforts in Ukraine.
Putin's trip to Budapest raises diplomatic challenges, considering the arrest warrant issued by the ICC, which requires special arrangements for air corridors. Hungary was chosen as the host due to Prime Minister Viktor Orban's connections with both leaders. Bulgaria will also continue to support EU sanctions against Russia and collaborate with Romania and Turkey to monitor Russian activities in the Black Sea, demonstrating an active commitment to supporting Ukraine.
