President Radev met with Roma New Year's greeters

President Radev met with survakari for Bango Vasil. The tradition in Bulgaria is that in the first hours of the New Year the children visit homes and wish for health, happiness and fertility with their survachkas (decorated cornel twigs).

President Rumen Radev met with children from two schools in Sliven on the occasion of the Roma New Year festival Bango Vasil. 

He praised the kids for their high grades in class. "Your progress is not only a joy for your parents and families, it is a pride for all of us," the Head of State told the students and wished them to look confidently into the future. 

Rumen Radev thanked the teachers and educators for their dedicated work with the children. "This is the way for Bulgaria to a dignified and successful future," he said.
