President Rumen Radev, who is paying an official visit to Vietnam, delivered a lecture on the occasion of the 75th anniversary since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries at the Diplomatic Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Addressing the future diplomats, the Bulgarian president stated that the role of diplomacy will grow with time. “History has shown that bad diplomatic decisions can easily lead to war, poverty and suffering. Wise diplomacy can prevent war, restore peace and lead to stability and progress,” he said.
Bulgaria is among the first 10 countries to have recognized the independence of Vietnam in 1950, Rumen Radev went on to say. In the period from 1972 until 1989 more than 30,000 Vietnamese worked in Bulgaria, and 5,000 graduated from Bulgarian universities.
“We are proud that with the knowledge, skills and experience acquired in Bulgaria, all of these people have contributed to the development of Vietnam,” Rumen Radev said.
