/Pogled.info/ Dear Mrs. Regional Governor of Gabrovo,
Dear People’s Representatives,
Dear Constitutional Judges,
Dear Mr. Deputy Chief of Defense,
Your Eminence Metropolitan Gregory of Veliko Tarnovo,
Dear regional governors, mayors and municipal councilors,
Dear Generals, Officers, Sergeants and Soldiers,
Dear compatriots!
Every year we climb Shipka to pay tribute to the Bulgarian militiamen and warriors from the Imperial Army of the Liberator Tsar, who in the August heat of 1877 defended our right to have a state. Already a century and a half resurrected Bulgaria is on the map of Europe.
All of us at the top, the millions of citizens of the Republic, are Bulgarians and Europeans by birth, history and culture. Those who never come to Shipka believe that being European means renouncing being Bulgarian. It’s a self-destructive complex.
It is a pernicious fallacy that to be European means to scratch history, to mock tradition, to be ashamed of the flag and to mock patriotism.
It is unforgivable irresponsibility to pass on ideals in which generations of Bulgarians have built their lives and work. The ideals of our revivalists, of Levski, Botev and Gotse Delchev.
Here at the Freedom Monument we have gathered to declare that after the “epic of the forgotten” we will not allow those who are always missing here at the top to impose on us an epic of the crossed out. To manipulate historical memory, to encroach on Bulgarian holy places and to wonder over the years how to throw Vazov out of the textbooks.
Today we say enough!
March 3rd is the red line of our patience.
European Bulgaria has a future only when we put an end to the political indifference that sows discord and is a parasite on division. Which trades with everything Bulgarian for its survival. We do not need collectivism, but unity around statehood, history and national dignity, around democratic conquests and the freedoms of citizens.
Dear compatriots,
Today we say NO to the creeping censorship, to the slander, to the substitution and the scandals, through which a project to hijack the constitution is being pushed. He envisages that Bulgaria will be governed by politicians for whom Bulgarian citizenship is a detail, and politics is a contest of servility.
We say no to attempts to destroy statehood by taking over institutions for selfish political and economic purposes.
Today we put an end to the countdown, to the disintegration and declare that Bulgaria will remain: a republic of equal and free citizens who decide their own future. National self-consciousness and civic energy are called upon to protect us from spiritual and moral decay! The people’s movement will not allow the Third of March to be erased, our national memory to be erased, and the Bulgarian statehood to be dismantled!
Eternal memory for the heroes of the Shipchen epic!
Long live Bulgaria!
