U.S. seeks to strengthen strategic cooperation with Bulgaria

Sofia, Dec 17 (Prensa Latina) Bulgarian President Rumen Radev on Saturday phoned U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in the attempt to reinforce strategic and security cooperation.

The conversation came amid Washington’s attempts to keep the hostile position of all EU member states against Russia, after President Vladimir Putin announced the beginning of a military operation in Ukraine (February 24).

The Western powers, led by the United States, launched an economic war on Russia including a staggered boycott on oil and gas purchases, which had a boomerang effect on the European economies, according to local press.

In this regard, a press release indicated that Radev admitted the possibility of constructing an oil pipeline from the Greek port city of Alexandropolis to the Bulgarian city of Burgas.

In addition, the Bulgarian president, whose country joined the punitive measures against Moscow, asked Blinken to offer him the possibility of leasing U.S. fighters.
