Bulgaria’s Prime Minister Rumen Radev has summoned the Russian ambassador to address recent drone strikes that targeted ships within Bulgaria’s Black Sea economic zone. The attacks, which have raised security concerns, prompted Radev to acknowledge the possibility that Moscow likely benefited from the incidents. While not directly accusing Russia of orchestrating the attacks, the Bulgarian leader’s statement signals growing unease and demands for answers regarding the escalating situation in the Black Sea. The summons represents a significant diplomatic move as Bulgaria navigates the complexities of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and its impact on regional stability. This incident highlights the potential for spillover effects from the war and the vulnerability of maritime traffic in the Black Sea. Bulgaria is expected to request clarification from the Russian government regarding its position on the attacks and its commitment to ensuring the safety of navigation in the Black Sea economic zone. The situation underscores the need for de-escalation and a diplomatic resolution to prevent further incidents.
