Armenia Welcomes Vejdi Rashidov Like Hero

Rashidov promised to send authentic Bulgarian folk costumes to the
local school’s dance ensemble

Bulgaria’s Minister of Culture Vejdi Rashidov who is on an official
visit in Yerevan was decorated with a badge of honor in a local school
named after Bulgarian poet Peyo Yavorov. School master and governor of
the Gyumri region met Rashidov like a hero who made a generous
donation of USD 60,000 for the victims of an earthquake in Armenia.
`You were the first person who lent us a hand after the disaster,’ the
hosts thanked their guest. In 1988 a strong quake ruined the town of
Gyumri, taking a toll of 40,000 lives.
