Representatives of the Bulgarian community in the United States gathered at the historic The Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. to celebrate Bulgaria’s National Day - Liberation Day of Bulgaria, marked on March 3 together with Посолство на България в САЩ / Embassy of Bulgaria in the USA

The event brought together diplomats, community leaders, the U.S. Army representatives, and friends of Bulgaria to honor the anniversary of the restoration of Bulgarian statehood following the Treaty of San Stefano in 1878. The celebration highlighted the historical significance of the day and the enduring spirit of the Bulgarian people.

It was a true honor to celebrate this very special day for Bulgaria together with:
- H.E. Congressman Joe Wilson, US House of Representatives, Co-Chair of the Bulgaria Caucus;
- Mr. Kevin Covert, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary at the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs at the U.S. Department of State;
- Dr. Nora Dimitrova-Clinton, Ph.D., Founder and Chairwoman of the American Research Center in Sofia - ARCS;
- H.E. Gergana Karadjova, the Permanent Representative of Bulgaria to the United Nations and Head of the Permanent Mission of the Republic of Bulgaria to the United Nations,
- and H.E. Angel Angelov, Ph.D., Consul-General of the Republic of Bulgaria in New York, NY.

The Founder and President of the Bulgarian Congress of the United States, Mr. Pete Kristofferson, who is of Bulgarian origin, joined members of the diplomatic community and guests in commemorating this important national holiday, reaffirming their commitment to preserving Bulgarian heritage, culture, and historical memory among the Bulgarian diaspora in the United States. 🇧🇬✨

🇧🇬 ПРЕССЪОБЩЕНИЕ / PRESS RELEASE

Инициираме провеждане на изнесени консулски дни на остров Нантъкет, Масачузетс

Уважаеми сънародници,

Българският Конгрес на САЩ официално изпрати писмо до Генералното консулство на Република България в Ню Йорк, с което предложихме организиране на Изнесени консулски дни на остров Нантъкет през 2026 г.

📍 На острова живеят над 500 български граждани, а значителната отдалеченост от консулската служба в Ню Йорк затруднява достъпа им до важни административни и консулски услуги.

В писмото изразихме пълната готовност на Българския Конгрес и местната общност в лицето на Български образователен център с Българско училище "Нантъкет" да осигурят логистична и организационна подкрепа, включително:
* предоставяне на подходящо помещение;
* съдействие от българската общност и Българското училище;
* предварително записване и информационна кампания;
* подкрепа и координация на място по време на консулските дни.
Към писмото е приложен и първоначален списък на желаещи, който се увеличава ежедневно.

🤝 Вярваме, че с общи усилия съвместо с българската общност в Нантъкет и Генералното консулство ще осигурим достъп до услуги, от които българите на Острова имат нужда — лесно, навременно и без допълнително пътуване.

Български Конгрес на САЩ
Заедно в подкрепа на българските общности в Америка 🇧🇬🇺🇸

We Initiate the Organization of Mobile Consular Services on Nantucket Island, MA

Dear Bulgarian community members,

The Bulgarian Congress of the USA has officially submitted a request to the Consulate General of the Republic of Bulgaria in New York, proposing the organization of Mobile Consular Days on Nantucket Island in2026.

📍 More than 500 Bulgarian citizens reside on Nantucket, where the considerable distance to the nearest Consulate General in New York makes access to essential administrative and notary services difficult.

The Bulgarian Congress and the local community have expressed full readiness to support the initiative by:
* providing an appropriate venue;
* offering logistical support through the Bulgarian community and the Bulgarian Educational Center and the Bulgarian Sunday School;
* conducting pre-registration and outreach;
* coordinating and assisting on-site during the consular mission.
An initial list of interested applicants has been submitted together with the letter, with more names added daily.

🤝 We believe that, through cooperation with the Consulate General, Bulgarians on the Island will receive timely and convenient access to the consular services they need.

Together in service of Bulgarian communities across America 🇧🇬🇺🇸
