In a statement published on the State Department website, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken congratulated our country on its National Day. "On behalf of the United States of America, please accept my best wishes to the people of Bulgaria on the 146th anniversary of the Day of Liberation of Bulgaria," he said. 

Anthony Blinken stressed the importance of the diplomatic relations between the two countries. "The United States deeply values our more than 120 years of diplomatic relations with Bulgaria. Our partnership, based on shared democratic ideals, fosters peace and prosperity for both our nations and contributes to the unity and security of Europe and the transatlantic community."

"We recognize Bulgaria’s commitment to deepening its integration into European institutions, ensuring its energy security and economic vitality, and enhancing its partnership with NATO Allies, the address read further. - We are united in our efforts to support Ukraine and its people as they fight to defend their country and their freedom from the Kremlin’s war of aggression."

In conclusion the US Secretary of State added: "We are stronger together because of our cooperation on important issues like rule of law and democratic institutions, a diverse and reliable energy landscape, and expanded economic and people-to-people ties between our countries. I look forward to deepening our partnership in the year ahead."
