Bulgaria counts on its balanced foreign policy and good relations with the Arab world in order to prevent terrorist attacks such as the one that just happened in Russia, according to Prime Minister, Boyko Borisov.
Borisov, who is on an official visit to Japan, commented for the media the tragic events at the Moscow "Domodedovo" airport where an explosion killed 35 people and injured 130 on Monday.
"We maintain friendly relations with Palestine, with all Arab countries. The Arab world is doing business in Bulgaria; there is a doner kebab on every street corner, the PM said to assuage fears of an attack on Bulgaria.
Borisov said the cabinet hopes people who make the decisions about such attacks would take into account Bulgaria's ties with the Arab countries.
When asked if authorities have upped security at Bulgarian airports, the PM stated that even in countries with much stronger secret services such things happen and nothing can prevent them.
"You don't think Russian or American services have not been on alert, do you," Borisov asked, adding he was shaken by terrorism.
"This is murder. Pain for everyone. It is an inadmissible way to solve issues in the 21st century," Borisov pointed out.
