Bulgaria's PM Petkov on May 9: We celebrate the Day of United Europe

"On 9 May, we celebrate the day of united Europe. This Europe, which foundations were laid in the middle of the last century by true visionaries who lived through the horror of two world wars, division and immense human anguish. But they had the courage to put aside pain and revanchism, to look boldly into the future and to mark the beginning of the reunification of the European continent," Bulgarria’s Prime Minister, Kiril Petkov, said in an address published on the official Facebook page of the Council of Ministers.

"By affirming unity and tolerance as its core values, Europe has become a benchmark of freedom, solidarity, economic rise and prosperity.

Today, unfortunately, a terrible war is being waged in Europe again. People are dying, millions of lives have been destroyed, dozens of towns and villages have been turned into ruins. These tragic events clearly show us that human life, unity, peace and reunification are the greatest values and we must do our best to protect and defend them.

I believe that Europe will demonstrate its strength and unity because only together we can face the challenges and emerge from them even more united," the Prime Minister said.
