''Bulgaria needs young people who have gone abroad, received a good education and become accustomed to the discipline of modern life in Europe and around the world to return and bring their skills back home. This will transform the business environment, the institutions and will make the country different'', said Premier Rosen Zhelyazkov at the opening of the forum "Career and Life – Why in Bulgaria?", part of the "Bulgaria Wants You" platform. This year, the forum is held under the motto "Bulgaria Across Five Oceans."

Premier Zhelyazkov said that a system can change under constant external pressure and pointed to the potential of Bulgarians living abroad. “We may be far apart, but we are not divided”, said Rosen Zhelyazkov, emphasizing the efforts of many governments in recent years to bring back our compatriots who, for one reason or another, are far from their homeland.
