Bulgaria: Bulgaria's Outgoing Govt Approves BGN 54.6 for MiG-29 Maintenance BGNES

The outgoing government has approved the financing of the project for ensuring the flight efficiency of the MiG-29 fighter jets.

The second tranche of the funds approved for the project in the budget amounts to BGN 54.6 M. The first tranche of BGN 15.3 M was transferred at the beginning of the month.

This will allow for the creation of the necessary conditions for Bulgaria’s airforce to maintain and guarantee the air sovereignty of the country and implement the common security and defence policy of the EU and NATO.
