On behalf of the Government of the United States of America, I congratulate the people of Bulgaria on your National Day, US Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo said through the website of the US Department of State

“March 3 marks the creation of an independent, modern Bulgaria. Later this month we will also celebrate Bulgaria’s sovereign decision to join NATO 15 years ago. Since Bulgaria shed the Communist yoke 30 years ago, our two countries have become strong Allies and partners,” the message reads.

The US Secretary of State also wished “the people of Bulgaria an enjoyable holiday and look forward to seeing our friendship and economic partnership grow ever stronger in the years to come.”
