As Ambassador Armen Yedigarian noted in his speech during the opening ceremony - "to me this promising Center symbolizes two major elements of the same reality: the ultimate individual and collective success of the descendants of the survivors of the Armenian Genocide received in Bulgaria more than a hundred years ago and the strength of the Armenian-Bulgarian eternal friendship".
