As of December 31, 2014, Bulgaria will terminate its participation in the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) operation in Afghanistan, BGNES news agency reports.
A total of 110 members of Bulgaria's armed forces will take part in the new NATO-led Resolute Support mission in the country starting November 1. The decision will be put to the vote during a government meeting, Wednesday.
