The Embassy of Bulgaria in the USA announced that the Ambassador of Bulgaria to the USA, Georgi Panayotov, has been appointed as a member of the Advisory Council of the Woodrow Wilson House, reported BTA. The appointment has been approved by Carol Quillen, President and Chief Executive Officer of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Ambassador Panayotov's nomination follows active contacts and cooperation with the Woodrow Wilson House, stemming from the distinguished role of the 28th President of the United States in the history of Bulgaria.

 President Wilson has exceptional merit for the existence of modern Bulgaria. At the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, after World War I, he categorically opposed the demands for the partitioning of Bulgaria. President Wilson was uncompromising and declared that he would rather leave the conference than accept the partitioning of a nation with an independent state and a centuries-old history.
