Memb. Pasheva said. She quoted the first sentence of the speech delivered after the signing of the agreement: \u201cThis agreement, signed between the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences and the National Center for Scientific Research, is a result of the good relations between the Bulgarian and French peoples.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The President of BAS, Corr. Memb. Evelina Slavcheva, welcomed the participants and said that the agreement was fundamental in terms of its long history and the time when it was signed. She emphasized the increased activity and contacts between the two countries over the past 60 years as well as the trust that had been built, and explained that the established scientific areas of mutual interest over the years continued to develop. \u201cI would be delighted to continue this fruitful cooperation because, according to statistics, 80% of the scientific publications of the CNRS with Bulgarian scientists are with researchers from BAS,\u201d Corr. Memb. Evelina Slavcheva said.<\/p>\n<p>The Ambassador of France to Bulgaria, H.E. Marie Dumoulin, began her speech by saying that this anniversary was not just a symbolic date. She emphasized that at the time of the first signing, scientific research was one of the few areas in which dialogue between East and West could take place. \u201cThis event is an opportunity to pay tribute to those who, for six decades, have promoted dialogue and cooperation between researchers in our two countries,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/institutfrancais.bg\/cnrs-i-ban-shest-desetiletiya-nauchno-partnorstvo-2-dekemvri-2025\/\">Two lectures<\/a> presented the development of the CNRS and the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, delivered by Denis Guthleben and Prof. Iliyana Marcheva.
