    Bulgarian Clergy Blesses NATO Headquarters


    Politics: 4 March 2005, Friday.

    Bulgarian delegation consisting of clergymen from various confessions
    of Bulgaria landed on a special visit at the Brussels headquarters of
    NATO on Friday.

    Metropolitan bishops of Varna and Veliko Tarnovo - Kiril and
    Grigorii, the director of Supreme Muslim Institute Mustafa Hadji,
    Apostolic Bishop Hristo Proykov, the head of Armenian Apostolic
    Church in Bulgaria Rupen Krikoryan, the chairman of Central Israeli
    Spiritual Council Robert Djerassi, the chief of Union of Evangelistic
    Churches Pastor Viktor Varchev, and Pastor Vassil Vassilev, who is
    chairing the United Evangelic Alliance.

    The visit has marked a unique event of consecrating the NATO offices
    of Bulgaria in Brussels, as that is the first ever visit of Bulgarian
    clergymen at the headquarters of the Alliance, nearly a year after
    Bulgaria became its full-fledged member.

    The delegates met with NATO officers, including with Jamie Shea, NATO
    Deputy Assistant Secretary General for External Relations, who
    stressed on the important public role of clergy for the formation of
    public opinion.
