Tylvar told the publication that the danger of sea mines near the Black Sea is enormous, and we must be prepared to defuse them at any time. According to him, since the beginning of Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine, 95 mines have been found in the Black Sea.
The Romanian-Bulgarian-Turkish initiative to create a mine action group in the Black Sea deserves even more praise because, as I said, 95 mines have appeared over time. The likelihood of their reappearance is quite high, so we have created this initiative, which is open and I can join it, and we also have requests for membership from other allies to be able to ensure security in the Black Sea
Earlier it was reported that on Thursday, a sea mine was found in the Black Sea, near the resort of Costinesti.
Recall
Last summer, an explosion occurred on the Romanian coast in the city of Costinesti, one of the famous Romanian resorts on the Black Sea. It was reported that the explosion was probably caused by a sea mine.
