According to foreign media reports, on August 31, a plane carrying the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, to Bulgaria was subjected to interference with the satellite positioning system (GPS), but the plane landed safely. The EU (European Union) spokesperson said on August 1. The spokesperson said: "We have confirmed the GPS interference, but the plane landed safely in Bulgaria. We have contacted the Russian government for comments, but we have not received a response so far. This spokesperson did not provide more details, but stated that this incident will strengthen the EU's commitment to enhancing defense capabilities and supporting Ukraine. The Bulgarian government issued a statement saying that due to an aircraft losing GPS signals near the southern city of Plovdiv, the Bulgarian government has switched to ground control. The President of the European Commission is on a four-day visit to EU member states bordering Russia.
