Ukraine's Defence Intelligence Chief, Major General Kyrylo Budanov, and a delegation he led have paid an official visit to Bulgaria, the Military Intelligence Service said on its website on Tuesday.

At a meeting, Bulgarian Defence Minister Todor Tagarev and the Director of Bulgaria's Defence Intelligence Service, Brigadier General Venelin Venev, discussed with Major General Budanov the https://myrotvorets.center website and regional and international security, among other topics. 

The prospects for the development of the situation and other matters of mutual interest were also on the agenda. The hosts raised and clarified the issue with the Myrotvorets website, the press release said.

The sides were highly appreciative of the meetings held. An emphasis was laid on the productivity of the talks, and satisfaction was expressed with the level of bilateral cooperation.

Earlier this month, Budanov said in a bTV interview that the inclusion of individuals from Bulgaria and the publication of their photos and names on the side does not entail any legal consequences. "This is an entirely private initiative which clarifies the way a certain group of people regarding the activity of other people, how they subjectively perceive their activity as detrimental to Ukraine or their statements are detrimental to Ukraine," the Ukrainian Defence Intelligence Chief explained.
