On the occasion of Bulgaria's Independence Day - 22 September, the Youth Multicultural Centre "Vasil Levski" will be opened in Taraclia. The desire of the Bulgarian Bessarabian community in the region is to build a monument to the Apostle in the town, marking the 150th anniversary of the death of the national hero. The Taraclia District Council appeals to the people of Ruse for financial support for the patriotic initiative.

The amount needed for the construction of the monument to Vasil Levski is 75 thousand BGN, 28 thousand BGN have been collected so far. Ruse Municipality will propose to the City Council to vote on sending financial support to the Bulgarian community with a donation of BGN 5000.

The construction of the monument is a joint initiative with the Association of Bulgarians around the world, the city of Varna and with the help of voluntary donations from other nations.
"The monument to Vasil Levski is a tribute to the memory and a tribute to the feat of a true hero for whom the words "homeland", "honour" and "dignity" were the meaning of life. The Apostle is a national hero of both the Bulgarians and the Bessarabian Bulgarians. The construction of the monument in Taraclia aims to perpetuate his memory and to contribute to the development of a high patriotic consciousness and a sense of loyalty to the homeland among the younger generation of the Bulgarian community in Moldova," said Ivan Paslar, the chairman of the Taraclia region.
