Balgarianovinite.com Interior Minister Ivan Demerdzhiev said Friday that intelligence services are monitoring information about a possible threat from Iran and that all necessary measures have been taken. He added that Prime Minister Rumen Radev had spoken by phone with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
Asked about the possibility, reviewed by the Greek Ministry of National Defence, of providing assistance to Bulgaria to strengthen its air and ballistic missile defence by deploying a Patriot system, Demerdzhiev said that all partner countries within NATO have such responsibilities. “We are using all available options,” he added.
Demerdzhiev also said that every effort is being made to address as soon as possible all identified gaps in the technical equipment along the border. “Our first task was to secure the Bulgarian-Turkish border,” the Interior Minister said. To a large extent, this has been achieved, including through allocated funding and anti-drone systems, he added.
According to Demerdzhiev, these efforts are continuing along the Black Sea coast and all other borders of the country, as well as inland. He also commented that over the past three years “no one has taken the trouble to take a step in this direction.”
“The Prime Minister has established coordination between us and the Ministry of Defence so that we can jointly plan and acquire the systems we need as soon as possible,” Demerdzhiev said. He added that the ambition is for at least two borders – the Black Sea one and the Bulgarian-Turkish border – to serve as an exemplary external border of the European Union.
