“I do not use the word ‘pressure’, but let us not forget that Bulgaria is an EU member state. That means a lot. We will turn to the other members of the Union for solidarity. The most important thing as such a responsible member is that Bulgaria does not allow new problems to be introduced into the European Union. The way to open the European path of our brothers from RSM passes primarily through Sofia. We must sit calmly, frankly and responsibly and solve our bilateral problems, “he commented on our relations with the Republic of Northern Macedonia.
As for the joint celebration on May 24 with the president of our southwestern neighbor, Radev explained that this is a great success. “Together with Stevo Pendarovski, we will not only pay tribute to the work of the holy brothers Cyril and Methodius in Rome, but the two delegations will travel together in one plane. In this way we will declare our clear and mutual political will that we will develop the relations between our two countries in trust, friendship and good neighborliness “, said the Bulgarian head of state.
On the occasion of today’s holiday Rumen Radev commented: “It was Bulgaria that saved their cause. What Cyril and Methodius started was continued by Kliment Ohridski and Naum Preslavski, who with their students and thousands of followers made Bulgaria become the spiritual and cultural center of the Slavic world in the Middle Ages. Let us today pay tribute to all artists, writers and people of the word, who over the centuries created the Bulgarian state of the spirit, from which today and in the future we will continue to draw strength for our spiritual revival. “
“On May 24, let us congratulate all our worthy teachers, writers and people of knowledge, who continue to strengthen the Bulgarian spirit and dispel the darkness of replacement. The state of the spirit has never perished in Bulgaria and it is up to us to pass it on to the next generations, “he added.
According to him, we have reason for optimism: “Bulgaria has always moved forward through education, knowledge and spirituality. Happy holiday!”
“Let’s not politicize today’s wonderful and bright Bulgarian holiday”, Radev answered a question about the fate of the heads of SANS and DAR.
The caretaker Prime Minister Stefan Yanev also declined to comment on the topic.
