Balgarianovinite.com To mark the 21st anniversary of the signing of Bulgaria’s EU Accession Treaty, President Iliana Iotova wrote in a Facebook post on Saturday that now is the time not only to reflect on the past, but also to set a new goal, which is for Bulgaria to be an active voice for a united, strong, and peaceful Europe.
Iotova said that Bulgaria’s choice has given Bulgarians the opportunity to develop as part of the world’s largest economic and values-based union. She wrote: “Our call today is clear. Let us work toward a stronger European economy, one that is competitive, innovative, and sustainable. Only in this way can we ensure the well-being of our citizens and the stability of the Union.”
The President stated that Europe’s security must be built not only by strengthening its military capabilities, but also through dialogue and diplomacy. “In a world of growing challenges, reason, cooperation, and respect for international law are the path to lasting peace and security,” she added.
