Bulgaria's Foreign Ministry has issued a statement condemning the large number of terrorist attacks in Iraq in the recent days.

"We categorically condemn the series of bombings and attacks in Iraq in recent days in which more than 100 Iraqi civilians have died," Bulgarian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Vesela Cherneva said Wednesday.

"To us, it is clear that these acts of terrorism in the Muslim holy month of Ramadan are an attempt to destroy civil peace, religious tolerance and the desire of the people and government of Iraq to build functioning institutions," she added.

In her words, Bulgaria confirms "its support for democracy, stability and prosperity in Iraq."
