Bulgaria exits Coalition of the Willing, signaling a diplomatic pivot on Ukraine aid
TL;DR Summary
Bulgarian Prime Minister Rumen Radev said Bulgaria doesn’t belong in the Coalition of the Willing because continued financial and military aid to Ukraine prolongs the conflict, signaling a diplomatic pivot after his April election win. Sofia will not send further military aid but says defense cooperation with Kyiv can continue commercially, and Radev skipped the coalition summit as Bulgaria shifts away from Kyiv’s allies.
