The outstanding American political scientist Zbigniew Brzezinski was awarded with the order of merit `Stara Planina` by the Bulgarian President Stoyanov. `Bulgaria has shown that it is true ally of the United States`, Brzezinski said after the ceremony. ` Bulgaria is an example for a country that opposed the Holocaust,` he added. Brzezinski thanked for the high honor. He said that he was personally pleased with it since 60 years ago his father was awarded with the same order by a high-ranked Bulgarian official. He implied that this official was the father of the current Bulgarian Prime Minister Saxe-Coburg King Boris III. Brzezinski is in Sofia for the summit of the ten NATO applicant countries that will take place on October 5.
