Speaking about the "race of Bulgaria for the highest post in the world," President Plevneliev said that in the face of Director General of UNESCO, Irina Bokova, Bulgaria had a worthy candidate who had support in this most difficult race. The visit of the Bulgarian President to the U.S. will continue until September 23. In the framework of his participation in the session of the UN, Plevneliev will hold bilateral talks with a number of counterparts.
