On March 3, Bulgaria celebrates the Liberation Day with a series of events in the country and abroad.
Bulgaria’s President Rumen Radev will be on Shipka Peak to pay tribute to the memory of the Bulgarian volunteers and the Russian soldiers who died fighting for the liberation of this country.

“Bulgaria is going through a serious ordeal. Our lives will return to normal, if we are united”, this country’s Premier Boyko Borissov stressed on the occasion of the 143rd anniversary of the liberation of Bulgaria from the Ottoman rule.
