This is the first time a director general of the Bulgarian National Radio has been elected to the EBU Radio Committee. The election of Milen Mitev, in challenging competition with other candidates, comes as recognition of the BNR’s active role in the work of the EBU and its position of a committed and reliable partner to European media outlets. Rayna Konstantinova and Albena Milanova have been vice presidents of the EBU’s Radio Committee.
