The elections will be “fateful” on April 4, the president announced Thursday. The date is far from ideal, but of course, according to the Constitution, Rumen Radev has the full right to indicate when to vote at his discretion, writes Tribune bg.

However, the new position elevates him in rank and equates him with the General Secretary of the Politburo of the Central Committee of the CPSU, Leonid Brezhnev.
Its date is a symbol of the decline of the Bulgarian Communist Party: in 1990, the party’s printed organ, the Rabotnichesko Delo newspaper, was finally renamed the Duma newspaper.
In Bulgarian politics, April 4, 2000 is still the day Simeon II arrives in the country and announces that he will stay to fix us for 800 days.
The date is a black anniversary of the Lim River tragedy, in which in 2004 we lost 12 Bulgarian children.
Worldwide, April 4 is the day NATO was founded, in 1949 with the signing of an agreement between 10 Western European countries, the United States and Canada.
In 1991, the Atlantic Club for Bulgaria was founded on the initiative of UDF deputy Solomon Passy, who became its president. Thus, in Bulgaria on April 4 the Atlantic Solidarity Day is celebrated.
