UN General Assembly
1964

27. Mr. President, it is my pleasant duty to convey to you the sincere congratulations of the Bulgarian delegation on your election to the office of President of the nineteenth session of the General Assembly and to wish you success in your task. The unanimous decision of the Assembly by which you have been elected to this office is an eloquent tribute to your talent and experience; it is a tribute to your country's contribution to the struggle against colonialism; and it is a tribute to the important role of the African peoples in the solution of the major problems of our day.
