"Mr President, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, I am worried about events spiralling out of control in the Balkans. I would like to raise the matter of the forthcoming debate in the Bulgarian national assembly on the free passage of NATO forces without the need for prior approval by parliament, the first time this has been allowed in a non-NATO country. There is also talk of leaving unmanned American aeroplanes on Bulgarian territory. What I am wondering is, does ΝΑΤΟ intend to use Bulgaria against FYROM in the same way as it used FYROM against Yugoslavia? At the same time, people protesting in Bulgaria against the country’s involvement with NATO are being persecuted and protestors from the new “Che Guevara” movement have been arrested and tried on charges of hooliganism. All this indicates the risk of a crisis spreading in Bulgaria. I should like to ask if the Council has faced up to such a possibility and thought out any action."@en1
