Radev's comments came after some NATO member countries authorized Ukraine to use their weapons for strikes on Russian territory. Some states indicated they had never imposed restrictions on this.

"With the decision to allow strikes with Western weapons deep into Russia and the formalization of sending advisors and instructors to the front, these red lines have already been crossed. Unfortunately, our politicians are becoming part of some of these inappropriate decisions, with all the consequences that follow," the Bulgarian president said.
