National Assembly President Tsveta Karayancheva is on a visit to Ireland for the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Assembly of Ireland - Dáil Éireann.

At a meeting with head of the Lower House of the Irish legislature, Seán Ó Fearghaíl, Karayancheva discussed possibilities for deepening cooperation between the assemblies of Bulgaria and Ireland. Karayancheva expressed gratitude for the possibility for the Bulgarian community in Ireland to have its own schools in Dublin and Shannon and to develop its cultural and educational activities. This is extremely important for us as more than 3,000 Bulgarians are working or studying in Ireland, the President of the Bulgarian National Assembly said.
