NEW DELHI: President of the Republic of Bulgaria, Rumen Radev, extended his gratitude to the Indian Navy on Monday for successfully rescuing its 7 crew members that were being held hostage by pirates aboard a hijacked Bulgarian ship.
In a post on X, the President of Bulgaria conferred his sincere gratitude to the prime minister for the brave action of the Navy rescuing the hijacked Bulgarian ship.
“My sincere gratitude to PM Narendra Modi for the brave action of Navy rescuing the hijacked Bulgarian ship “Ruen” and its crew, including 7 Bulgarian citizens”, the Bulgarian President wrote on X.

This comes a day after the deputy prime minister Mariya Gabriel on Sunday said,”I express my gratitude to the Indian navy for the successful operation to rescue the hijacked vessel Ruen & its crew members, including 7 BG nationals. Thank you for support & great effort. We continue to work together to protect lives of the crew.”
In a heart-warming response, external affairs minister Jaishankar replied to her and said, “That’s what friends are for.”
The Indian Navy on Saturday recaptured a ship from Somali pirates off the Indian coast, rescuing the crew and ending a three-month takeover of the Maltese-flagged bulk carrier MV Ruen, in an operation that lasted for 40 hours.
