An exhibition dedicated to the Cyrillic Alphabet was open by Bulgarian Socialist Members of the European Parliament in Strasbourg on Wednesday. The exhibition, which was organized at the initiative of Bulgarian MEP from Atanas Paparizov, attracted the interest of the European deputies. Its opening was preceded by a lecture and a discussion on the topic “Multilinguism and Inter-Cultural Dialogue - Cyrillic Alphabet’s Message to Europe”.
The leader of the Party of European Socialists group in EP Martin Schulz was a special guest at the ceremony. “The contribution of the Cyrillic alphabet to the cultural diversity and inter-cultural dialogue of Europe, and to the European linguistic heritage, is especially important”, Schulz said.
The thirty pictures - one for each letter in the Bulgarian alphabet - will be exhibited at the ASP Building of the European Parliament.
