In a social media post, Kovachki thanked Hutchinson for the productive meeting. The Bulgarian businessman said it was an honor and a pleasure to speak with a person of such stature.
Mr. Hutchinson’s service to the entire American people seems to fully embody the meaning of Arkansas’ state motto, Regnat populus, or ‘The people rule.’ He is a person with an exceptional background and life journey, dedicated to the prosperity of the United States and the protection of both American and global security”, Hristo Kovachki stated.
During his visit to Bulgaria, Asa Hutchinson met with several representatives of the Bulgarian business community, as well as with the Bulgarian Minister of Interior, Daniel Mitov.
