The US Ambassador to Bulgaria Richard Miles met Selim Mehmed, Chief Mufti of the Muslims in Bulgaria. The two officials discussed the tragic events in the US and the results from them. Miles stressed that that the American campaign against terrorism has nothing to do with Islam. Miles initiated the meeting. Mehmed noted that this indicates that the American people do not consider the Muslims as their enemies. Ambassador Miles thanked the Chief Mufti`s office for their declaration condemning the terrorist acts. `We know that Islam plays a very important role in the life of many Bulgarians and in the lives of many Americans. This struggle against international terrorism has no connection with Islam as we all understand Islam,` Miles said.
