The Bulgarian Minister of Culture Marian Bachev and Vice President of Bulgaria Iliana Iotova opened the Bulgarian stand at the world-famous London Book Fair – 2025. Bulgaria’s second consecutive participation in the prestigious forum is being carried out with the support of the Bulgarian Ministry of Culture and with the assistance of the Bulgarian Cultural Institute in London.
“Presenting your national literature at a prestigious international forum is a mission. I am pleased to note that it is becoming a reality and has been consistently upgraded and enriched in recent years,” said Minister Bachev. He assured the guests of the Bulgarian stand that they would “immerse themselves in the diversity of literature, which possesses a huge wealth of talents, themes and ideas”.
