Bulgaria, Romania and Ukraine are discussing the possibility of setting up a joint military brigade.
This became clear after a statement by Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko during his meeting with his Romanian counterpart Klaus Iohannis in Bucharest on Thursday.
Poroshenko revealed that the possibility was also discussed during the recent visit of Bulgarian President Rosen Plevneliev in Ukraine where he was bestowed the "Person of the year" annual award in recognition of his support for the sovereignty and integrity of Ukraine.
