We are sending off a year of trials – unparalleled in impact and scale… Yet, I have always said that Bulgarians demonstrate their strength best in the worst of times. That was true of 2020, which showed us what the word “heroes” truly means,” wrote Prime Minister Boyko Borissov in a New Year address on Facebook.
