There goes the neighbourhood!
Things are not looking well for Mr. Putin, so expect propaganda in full power to talk down current developments over there:
- Bulgaria joining Schengen
- Bulgaria buying F-16 from Lockheed-Martin and general upgrade of their army
- Bulgaria buying nuclear fuel from US starting April 2024
- Bulgaria a buying 2 nuclear reactors from Westinghouse to start operations by 2034
So, a loud boo for Bulgaria, please.
Back to our earthly concerns…any recommendations for wine and food from the new Schengen zone members?
