Bulgaria marks the 182nd birth anniversary of the Bulgarian Apostle of Freedom Vasil Levski with various events. At a ceremony in front of the Bulgarian Parliament the President of the Bulgarian National Assembly Tsveta Karayancheva called Levski an apostle, revival leader, saint and a measure of conscience, lawfulness and unity with God, family and fatherland.
