TL;DR

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy criticized Bulgarian President Radev's opposition to arming Ukraine during a tense televised exchange in Sofia. Zelenskyy argued that more weapons were necessary to defend against Russia's aggression and urged Radev to understand the gravity of the situation. Radev, who is more sympathetic to Russia and equivocal on NATO, suggested a proposal but asked for the TV cameras to leave before continuing the discussion.
