Bulgaria expels head of Russian Orthodox Church in Sofia
Sofia, Bulgaria: Bulgaria expelled the head of the Russian Orthodox Church in Sofia and two Belarusian priests for allegedly acting in Moscow's geopolitical interests, authorities said Thursday. The National Security Agency accused the three clerics of implementing Moscow's "hybrid strategy to purposefully influence the socio-political processes in Bulgaria in favor of Russian geopolitical interests". The agency, which only identified the men by their initials and nationalities, banned them from entering the country for five years.
