There is no build-up of Nato forces in Bulgaria and the government has not yet decided on the deployment of ground forces, Defence Minister Stefan Yanev said, hours ahead of a meeting of the Cabinet security council on January 25 to discuss the Russia-Ukraine crisis.

The security council meeting, to discuss the crisis and Nato Allies’ plans to strengthen the Alliance’s eastern flank, was being held on the eve of a regular Cabinet meeting and a special sitting of Bulgaria’s National Assembly on the crisis.

Yanev said that the public would be informed once a decision is made whether ground forces would be deployed in Bulgaria.
