"Despite the short life of the last parliaments, every beginning is filled with hope and you have the opportunity to leave a worthy mark in history with a display of reason, civic responsibility and strong will in these difficult times for Bulgaria and Europe."
"The main priority in the work of the parliament and the government is invariably to guarantee the national security", the head of state continued. "Today, this means strengthening one's own defense capacity, accelerating the modernization of the armed forces.

I hope they will be dealt with in an accelerated manner and let national security not be opposed to social policy.”
