Bulgarian Ambassador in London H.E. Mr. Marin Raykov received on February 19^th a group of students belonging to King’s College London’s Diplomacy Society.

The KCL students who visited the Embassy are representatives of a number of countries, among which Bulgaria and the UK, China, Germany, Hungary, Finland, and Spain. Their visit started with a tour of the Embassy, during which the students learned more about the history of our grade II listed building. They were also given a brief talk about the history of Bulgarian-British diplomatic relations, established 141 years ago, and were the first guests to see the Embassy’s new wall, featuring the photographs of all Bulgarian ambassadors in London.

Finally, the students were received by the Ambassador in his office and had an informal conversation on topics ranging from the Ambassador’s personal experience as a career diplomat to topical global issues of interest to the Diplomatic Society’s members, many of which are future diplomats for their countries.
