"Връщането към драматичните години и трагични събития, сполетяли България през последното столетие е преди всичко повод за задълбочени размисли, анализи, равносметка и сериозни изводи за бъдещето. Първата, най-важна и задължителна поука е никога в управлението и още по-малко начело на държавата да не се допускат безотговорни, професионално неподготвени, морално деградирали, безлични, безхарактерни, страхливи и с манталитет на слуги, както и авантюристи, психически неустойчиви лица, както и персони чужди по произход и дух на България."

This is a clearly visible tendency in the inscriptions of foreign languages, mass emigration and the wish for imitation of foreign culture. At other side, the answer to the question, "Why are you ashamed to call youself Bulgarian?" is more than obvious: there is in the present time to be proud of. The above-described situation makes preservation and popularization of Bulgarian History extraordinarily important. If it ... |
