The US ambassador to Bulgaria, Herro Mustafa and employees of the American Embassy in Sofia honoured the memory of the national hero Hristo Botev and all those who gave their lives for the liberation of Bulgaria.
***
Every year on June 2 Bulgaria marks the day of the distinguished Bulgarian poet, revolutionary and journalist, Hristo Botev, who sacrificed his life, at the age of 28, for the freedom of Bulgaria.
The day also commemorates the heroism of all who gave their lives for the liberation of the country.
Exactly at 12.00, sirens across the country are sounded to mark the beginning of two minutes silence to respect the memory of Botev and everyone who died for the liberty and independence of Bulgaria.
As part of the tradition, people stand up in silence until the sirens stop.
