"This visit is important for us, I'm sorry that the information was leaked. I hope that this will not prevent the arrival of the Ukrainian president," Tagarev added.

According to Bulgarian media outlets, Ukraine's president will visit Bulgaria on Thursday at the invitation of the new pro-European government.

Zelenskyy's visit comes after MPs refused to listen to his appeal, in which he wanted to call on Bulgaria to help Ukraine.
