Le Collège de défense nationale Rakovski est la plus ancienne institution militaire supérieure de Bulgarie
Il a été fondé par une loi de la 15 e Assemblée nationale du 1 er mars 1912. Il est basé à Sofia et a son propre drapeau, sceau et jour férié officiel le 14 avril. Le Collège de défense nationale Rakovski a une contribution unique à la la fondation du Corps des officiers bulgares, ainsi que la création du nouvel État bulgare et l’influence des valeurs européennes sur la nation bulgare. Aujourd’hui, c’est une institution nationale d’enseignement supérieur, de qualification et de recherche scientifique sur les questions de sécurité nationale et de défense. Le Collège de défense nationale Rakovski est accrédité en tant que haute institution par les autorités de l’État.
The Military Alma Mater is not only a unique scientific and educational institution. As her graduate, I am proud to note that she is also a patriotic school. It is a natural impulse to preserve the flame of pride and love for the Motherland by keeping its symbols alive. In this connection the Academy becomes a tribune of patriotism and guardian of national values.
We, not only politicians, but also people like you – from the leadership, teaching and scientific staff of our higher education institutions, students and doctoral students, public figures – all of us today must strive to build on our character, to aim high, not to break easily and to have the energy to be the bearers of a leadership spirit, of public opinion, of a strong and proud temper, of traditions, patriotic values and a stance of Bulgarianness.
I think that anyone who crosses the portal, the entrance to the Rakovski National Defence College, has no way of not testing them. The buildings themselves, walking along the alleys, have preserved the spirit of our ancestors. So I think that anyone who is dedicated to this profession – to be an officer, there is no way not to test them, because they are not forced to become an officer. You have to want it, you have to be dedicated to the state.
In the course of its historical development, the Rakovski National Defence College has managed to establish itself as the most important institution for military education in the country. Its authority is recognized not only nationally, but also far beyond the borders of the country. I express my deep respect for the leadership and teaching staff of the Academy, who, through their dedication and consistency, indisputable professionalism and competence, train and educate highly qualified personnel for the needs of the armed forces.
