In an address on social media Prime Minister Boyko Borissov states that Unification is a remarkable achievement of Bulgarian society. “I believe in the wisdom of the Bulgarian people! I believe that we, the citizens of Bulgaria will once again be able to come together around one national cause and embark on the path that is right for the country,” Boyko Borissov writes.
