For more than three decades, Bulgarian researchers and scientists have been opening the doors to knowledge that could be a key to the future of the world, President Rumen Radev said in a congratulatory address to the 29th Bulgarian Antarctic Expedition. The ceremony of handing the national flag to the Bulgarian Antarctic explorers was held in the Ceremonial Hall of Sofia University "St. Kliment Ohridski”.

"That little Bulgaria far away from here is more than ever a source of hope and faith that the limits of human intellect can be measured only with our dreams for a better life," President Radev said. According to the President, cooperation between nations is the key to success in exploring Antarctica.
