Caretaker Prime Minister Dimitar Glavchev will not sign the Agreement on Security Cooperation between Bulgaria and Ukraine if he does not gather a majority for support in the National Assembly. He commented on the topic from Brussels, after earlier in the day he requested permission from the parliament for this.
„If a majority is not gathered, I will not sign. I cannot take this responsibility. Without political support, we are being badly beaten from everywhere”, he added. And he specified: „I have no concerns about the Agreement, it is not legally binding and political. The only thing that worries me is the ten-year term”, Glavchev said, quoted by Nova TV.
The Prime Minister explained that this is a security agreement that only six European Union member states - Bulgaria, Austria, Hungary, Slovakia, Malta and Cyprus - have not signed. “It has the character of a political declaration that can always be withdrawn by a regular government”, is his opinion.
