Politics | October 9, 2001, Tuesday // 00:00

`The main task of the Cabinet and of all Bulgarian institutions now is to explain to the people what is happening in Afghanistan and why the democratic world had to retaliate for the terrorist attacks,` foreign Nadezhda Mihailiva said in a statement to BTA about the US and British strikes against Afghanistan. Mihailova was a foreign minister in the Cabinet of the United Democratic Forces until the new government took office in July and is now the United Democratic Forces floor leader. `Rather than in the skies above Afghanistan, the real battle is actually fought in each of our societies. The greatest victory of terrorism will be if we allow to be divided on a religious or ethnic principle,` Mihailova said. She said that the success of the Bulgarian ethnic model is once again proved with the fact that all in Bulgaria, irrespective of their ethnic identity or faith, supported the anti-terrorist coalition.
