In Gyurov's words, the holiday is also for all valiant people who choose not to be silent when they should speak, and not to go home when they should stay.
There are victories that come with weapons. And others that we win with honesty, with backbone and refusal to bow our heads when it is easier, added the acting prime minister.
The glorious army gives us certainty that there is someone to protect the country. But its citizens prove that there is something to protect, Gyurov also stated.

Happy holiday to the heroes - in battle formation, on the street and inside us, the prime minister added.
