140 unforgettable years since the Liberation of Bulgaria

On March 3 Bulgaria celebrated the 140th anniversary of the Liberation of the country from Ottoman rule. On this memorable day in 1878 was signed the San Stefano Peace Treaty between Russia and the Ottoman empire which put an end to the Russo-Turkish war (1877 – 1878) and established the Third Bulgarian Tsardom. Thus, each year on this day we honor all those who died for our freedom and independence.
