On this date, we gratefully remember the foresight, political wisdom and sense of responsibility of the participants in the Constituent Assembly, who adopted the Tarnovo Constitution 145 years ago in Tarnovo and laid the foundations of the revived fatherland, President Rumen Radev said.

In a greeting on the occasion of the Day of the Bulgarian Constitution and the professional holiday of lawyers, Radev pointed out that April 16, 1879 is the birth date not only of Bulgarian constitutionalism, but also of the aspiration for the development of Bulgaria as a country of the rule of law.

Violations and even the suspension of the Tarnovo Constitution have not succeeded in erasing its permanent importance for the development of the country, the president said and wished the Bulgarian lawyers to remain true to their vocation and be pillars of legality.
