Support Letter from the Chairman of the Bulgaria-Montenegro Friendship Group in the 49th National Assembly, Mr. Ivan V. Ivanov, for the Mentorship Program entitled “The Youth of Bulgaria and Montenegro – A Bridge for New Opportunities.” Mr. Ivan V. Ivanov, Chairman of the Bulgaria-Montenegro Friendship Group in the 49th National Assembly, sent a support letter to the President of the Montenegrin Parliament, Mr. Andrija Mandić, regarding the establishment of a joint initiative between the Embassy of Montenegro and the Association “Touch the Rainbow” and the “Youth Guard Detachments” Association. The initiative is a Mentorship Program entitled “The Youth of Bulgaria and Montenegro – A Bridge for New Opportunities.” “We believe that its main goal is to inspire and encourage the thousands of young people with whom the Association and the Society work. Organizing monthly meetings of young people with Mrs. Jelena Filipovic-Stoyanov, acting ambassador of Montenegro in Sofia, in various cities, demonstrates excellent neighborly relations and understanding for our future – the young people. We fully support the implementation of the Mentorship Program, realized as a joint initiative with the Embassy of Montenegro, which envisions from January to April 2024, fifty Bulgarian students, university students, and school directors visiting Montenegro to exchange cultural practices and traditions. The group’s program includes various initiatives such as a meeting with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Montenegro, visits to iconic places in the country, and discussions with various public figures, statesmen, and sports personalities in the country, among others. In connection with the above, we believe that holding a meeting in the Montenegrin Parliament between Montenegrin members of parliament and young people from Bulgaria would contribute to strengthening the ties between our two friendly countries. We are convinced that the Mentorship Program on the theme “The Youth of Bulgaria and Montenegro – A Bridge for New Opportunities” will be an excellent example of international cooperation. We assure you of our personal support as members of the Bulgaria-Montenegro Parliamentary Friendship Group for the realization of this initiative of yours. Please accept, dear Mr. President, the assurances of my highest respect,” states the letter from the Chairman of the Bulgaria-Montenegro Friendship Group in the 49th National Assembly, Mr. Ivan V. Ivanov, to the President of the Montenegrin Parliament, Mr. Andrija Mandić.
