The CMDR COE Director, Colonel Nikolov has participated as a keynote speaker at the Bulgarian national conference titled "20 Years of Bulgaria in NATO: Because We Are Strong Together" under the government's auspices. The event aimed to reflect on Bulgaria's two decades within the NATO alliance and commemorated 20 years of NATO membership.
This anniversary holds profound historical significance for Bulgaria, as NATO membership has been instrumental in safeguarding the nation's independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity. The conference was organized by the Diplomatic Institute of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in collaboration with the Information Center of the Ministry of Defense, the Atlantic Club in Bulgaria, and the Sofia Security Forum.
On March 29, 2004, Bulgaria, alongside several other nations including Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovakia, and Slovenia, officially became a member of the NATO alliance.
