2021 was a difficult year, but Bulgaria managed to face the challenges… This is what Vice President Iliana Yotova said in an interview with Radio Bulgaria about the past year filled with tensions in health, economic and domestic policy.

"In January, when President Rumen Radev and I announced our intentions to run for a second term in office, no one expected a year full of so many risks and uncertainties, so many elections. But I think we did well," the Vice President has told Elena Karkalanova. ”We did not close the country, which is very important as Bulgaria could hardly survive another complete lockdown. God forbid we go back to those dark months of 2020, when we really had the feeling that the apocalypse had come to earth."

Summing up, Iliana Yotova pointed out: "This year the country showed something remarkable - when there is the needed energy and when Bulgaria is really awake, we can do miracles."
