site.btaYes, Bulgaria Co-Chair Mirchev: March 3 Is Opportunity to Take Stock, Ask Ourselves What We Want to Pass On to Our Children

Patriotism, when it is genuine, is a matter of care, not declarations and demonstrations, said Yes, Bulgaria party Co-Chair and Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria MP Ivaylo Mirchev on Facebook on Tuesday on the occasion of the national holiday - March 3. "Today's date is above all an opportunity to take stock, a reason to ask ourselves what we want to pass on to our children from today's Bulgaria, and what has no place in our future," he added.

He pointed out that the good things inherited from ancestors must be preserved, multiplied, and built upon, while the things that do not work must be left in the past with a clear assessment.

Among the values that he believes should be passed on, he highlighted the conviction that the country's development depends on its citizens, the persistence to work for the common good even when it is difficult, the courage to say "no" to attempts to turn the State into a "one-man show," the conviction that bridges between people are needed, not fences, and love for the homeland. "This is the way for Bulgaria to live in us and us in it," Mirchev wrote, sending his greetings on the occasion of the holiday.
