The chairman of the Committee on Culture in the Capital City Council convenes an extraordinary joint meeting with the Committee on Architecture in the SOS, dariknews.bg reported.

The aim is to hear the mayor of Sofia, Vasil Terziev, regarding the termination of the procedure for the restoration of the Memorial of the First and Sixth Infantry Regiments.

The meeting will be held today at "Moscowska" 33.

“The reasons for stopping the project must be justified before the whole society and before us, the municipal councilors from GERB-SDS, who have been fighting for the restoration of the monument for years”, Miroslav Borsosh emphasizes.

We remind you that for years generations of Bulgarians have been waiting for the restoration of the memorial in front of the National Palace of Culture in memory of our ancestors who died in the wars for the Liberation and Reunification of the Fatherland. Mayor Terziev added salt to the wound by canceling the competition for the Soldier's Monument in front of the NDK, which was sharply criticized by the MEP Andrey Kovachev, who also demanded Terziev's resignation.

Later, the mayor of Sofia, Vasil Terziev, announced that a new competition will be held for the Soldier's Monument in front of the National Palace of Culture. The mayor emphasized that a new competition will be held with urban planners, architects, artists, sculptors, historians, sociologists, professional organizations, citizens' associations. We will do our best to get as many creatives as possible to enter projects in the next contest. We will look for different points of view and use data and analyzes of public opinion, Vasil Terziev also said.
