At a meeting in Sofia between Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borisov and Russian Ambassador Anatoly Makarov, a topic of discussion became the recent speech of Russian President Vladimir Putin on the Cyrillic alphabet.
Yesterday in Moscow, Putin told Macedonian President Gjorge Ivanov that the alphabet had been transferred to Russia from "Macedonian lands". Even after the meeting with PM Borissov, Ambassador Makarov did not answer directly the question where the Cyrillic alphabet actually came from, but pointed out that the Day of Slavonic Alphabet was a joint holiday and that he had participated in all the festive events held in Bulgaria.
The meeting with the Bulgarian Prime Minister was planned in advance and it focused mostly on energy projects.
