The badge of honour of the Bulgarian head of state was bestowed on Colonel Slavcho Velkov for his contribution to defence and the security of Bulgaria and his military and patriotic activity.

“It is an honour for me to bestow well-deserved distinctions on our prominent compatriots who have dedicated their work to Bulgaria and, with their professional successes, have contributed to its development and prosperity,” President Radev said.
