Your visit marks one more important stage in the growing friend- ship between Our two peoples. When I visited your beautiful country a little more than a year ago, I gained a fuller appreciation of the spirit of your great people, of your Own dynamic and purposeful leadership and of the need for strengthening the relations between our two nations. I was impressed by the rapid progress made by Bulgaria in industry, agriculture, in promotion of tour- ism and in social services. Much has happened since we last met and the world picture is fast changing. The recent remarkable achievements in space travel have evoked worldwide admiration and wonder. A great knowledge of the universe will enable man to know his world better and we hope that the knowledge gained will be used for the welfare of humanity as a whole and the betterment of the vast numbers of those who are still underpriviledged. Compared to these achievements, we are far behind in the scientific field. How- ever, in a few months we shall be com- missioning the first of our atomic power stations. We believe in utilising atomic energy only for peaceful purposes and to improve the lot of our people. We are striv- ing hard to increase our production and to strength our industrial base. Your tour of our country will take you to some of our new industrial cities and centres of technology. Little by little great changes are being brought about. Yet, such is the size of our population and the magni- tude of our problems of development that we can only claim to have laid the basis of modernization and progress. My father once spoke of ours as a generation sentenced to hard labour. The term of the sentence has still to run out. We must continue to work hard so that we can achieve deliverance from poverty as 22 years ago we achieved freedom from colonial bondage. Knowledge should lead to greater under- standing and tolerance but, unfortunately, we find that outdated ideas of racial superiority and of spheres of influence still persist and economic disparities continue to widen. The two major problems which confront the world and which we discussed previously, still remain unsolved, i.e. Vietnam and West Asia. We are glad that some progress has been made in Paris and we hope that serious negotiations will now begin for a peaceful settlement within the broad framework of the Geneva Agreements of 1954 of the tragic conflict in Vietnam. We must register our regret at the distress and aggressiveness which continue to plague the situation in the West Asia. The battle of peace cannot be waged by one side making all concessions. We hope that reason will prevail and that another outbreak of hostilities will be avoid- ed. Our two countries are one in supporting the efforts of the United Nations to find an amicable solution of the problems arising out of the conflict of June, 1967. The U.S.S.R. and France have taken some initiative. We trust that this initiative will broaden the idea of co-operation in support of Jarring Mission. 1 In these circumstances, the relevance of the policies of co-existence and non-align- ment needs to be re-stated. We believe in peaceful co-existence with other countries irrespective of their social and idealogical systems. We do not covet the territory of others. We believe that non-interference in the affairs of other countries is one of the corner-stones of the policy of peaceful co- existence and that force should not be used as a means for settling disputes. We are ceaselessly striving for meaningful inter- national co-operation. Without such a co- operation, world will plunge into old and new divisions. Suspicions and rivalries will in- crease and power politics which is basically out of date will have a new lease of life. We are also deeply committed to the policy of non-alignment because we believe that it serves the cause of peace and of economic development. For the family of developing nations to which we belong, a peaceful world is a necessity. But peace does not merely mean the absence of conflict. Peace stands for economic co-operation between Countries and bilateral assistance programmes, so that people can achieve that economic prosperity and social justice which is their due. Bulgaria and India already have a number of bilateral agreements on trade, cultural exchange and technical and scientific co-operation, and we hope this co-operation will grow and strengthen. May I propose a toast to the health of the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the People's Republic of Bulgaria, to the strength and prosperity of the Bulgarian nation and to the further blossoming of Indo- Bulgarian friendship. BULGARIA INDIA USA VIETNAM FRANCE SWITZERLAND Date : Jan 01, 1969 Volume No XV No 1 1995 BULGARIA Reply by Mr. Zhivkov Replying to the toast proposed by the Prime Minister, Shrimati Indira Gandhi, Mr. Zhivkov said: Your Excellency, Ladies and Gentlemen, The first day of our visit to India is drawing to a close. Since our very first hour on Indian soil our stay has been filled with interesting and useful meetings and talks. I would like to stress that when political and state figures are guided by the vital interests of their peoples and when they speak the language of peace and friendship, they can soon find a common language. That has been the case today too. Furthermore, your visit to Bulgaria, distinguished Mrs. Gandhi, has already prepared the ground for that. During your visit to Bulgaria in 1967, You were in a position, although briefly, to get acquainted with our country, to feel the constructive spirit of present-day Bulgaria to come to know the love of peace and friend- liness of our people. Having waged cen- turies-long struggles for their national and social liberation, our people have finally taken the broad path of socialist construc- tion. YOU could personally witness the friendly feelings of the Bulgarian people for the people of India, for their heroic struggle against colonial bondage, for their efforts in building a new life. You could feel the enormous popularity enjoyed in Bulgaria by the inspirers and builders of new India, you could feel how much alive in the memory of the people are the names of the great sons of the Indian people Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru, the name of your worthy predecessor Lal Bahadur Shastri. Your name, distinguished Mrs. Indira Gandhi, the name of an outstanding public and state figure of modern India, a great fighter for peace and friendship among nations, is one of the popular and highly respected names in Bulgaria today. I am certain that during your visit to Bulgaria you could personally become convinced of the sincere friendship Bulgaria has for the Republic of India, for its peace-loving and anti-imperialist foreign policy, for its noble and beneficial role in the world, for the public and state figures of India. We have come to India as envoys of our people and our mission has only one aim - to consolidate and promote our friendship to 2 which your visit to Bulgaria gave a strong impetus. Please allow me to express my conviction that our meetings and talks will continue in the same language and in the same spirit of friendship as in Bulgaria, as they have during the first day of our Visit. The kind words which you, distinguished Mrs. Gandhi, said about the People's Repub- lic of Bulgaria, the hospitality and cordiality with which we have been surrounded, the warm good wishes for the future of our people-all this has deeply moved us and has evoked in us not only gratitude but also confidence in the success of our mission. We live in two different continents, thousands of miles lie between our two countries. But if once, it took months to cover such distances, today a supersonic plane-such as the Soviet plane TU-144, will take a mere two hours so that we could have the pleasure of meeting and talking. This is the case with friendship too. Un- fortunately mankind has gone much further as far as hostility is concerned.

    www.diplomacy.net.in NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF DIPLOMACY New Delhi This website titled www.diplomcy.net.in is the official website of the National Institute of Diplomacy (NID) established in the year 1985 and inaugurated by the then Union Minister for External Affairs Shri Bali Ram Bhagat on 14 November 1985 on the auspicious occasion of the Birth Anniversary of the First Prime Minister of India. 1 The External Affairs Minister of India, Shri Bali Ram Bhagat inaugurating the National Institute of Diplomacy (NID) on 14 th November 1985. The main activities of National Institute of Diplomacy (NID) since its inception has been based on studies, training and research for understanding the relationships among all countries and the roles of the States, Inter-Governmental Organisations (IGOs), International Non-Governmental Organisations (INGOs), Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), and the Multi-National Corporations (MNCs). The NID endorses the view that fields of Diplomacy as well as International Relations are both an Academic as well as a Public Policy field and can be either positive or normative as it both seeks to analyse and formulate the foreign policy of the particular country. According to the NID, the fields of Diplomacy and International Relations draw upon such diverse areas as economics, history, international law, philosophy, geography, social work, sociology, anthropology, criminology, psychology, women’s studies / gender studies, and cultural studies. They involve a diverse range of issues including globalisation, state sovereignty, international security, ecological sustainability, nuclear proliferation, nationalism, economic development, global finance, terrorism, organised crime, human security, foreign interventionism and human rights. The ability to practice diplomacy is one of the defining elements of a country.

    Post-Islamism in Tunisia and Egypt: Contradictory Trajectories

    religions Article Post-Islamism in Tunisia and Egypt: Contradictory Trajectories Houssem Ben Lazreg Department of Modern Languages & Cultural Studies, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB T6G 2R3, Canada; [email protected] Abstract: In the wake of the Tunisian Revolution of 2011, Ennahda leader Rached Ghannouchi distanced his party from the main Islamist paradigm, which is spearheaded primarily by the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, and announced the separation of the religious movement entirely from its political wing (al-Siyasi and al-da’awi). In addition to reassuring Tunisians that Ennahda’s socio- political project is rooted in its “Tunisianity,” these measures aimed at signaling Ennahda’s joining the camp of post-Islamist parties and Muslim democrats such as the AKP in Turkey and the JDP in Morocco. In this article, using the comparative case studies, I examine the patterns, similarities, and differences between the Tunisian Ennahda party and the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood in terms of their evolutions from an Islamist to a post-Islamist discourse and identity. I argue that the Ennahda party outpaced the Muslim Brotherhood in that shift considering the local/regional realities and the new compromises dictated by the post-revolutionary political processes in both countries. Although the Muslim Brotherhood managed to come to power and govern for only one year before being deposed by the army, Ennahda’s political pragmatism (consensus, compromise, and coalition) enabled it to fare well, ultimately prodding the party to adapt and reposition itself intellectually and politically.

Hip hop and its Islamic roots have often been mentioned by African-American hip hop pioneers and the Muslim hip hoppers in Muslim countries. Hip hop often represents marginal youths’ symbolic resistance against racism, police brutality and poverty in an American context. Its marriage to Islamic ideology creates a space for further research and investigation. The hip hop prophecies of liberty, hope and success together with Islamic standards and moral values of redemption, equality and promoting virtue and preventing vice1, have shaped vibrant youth scenes in post-Suharto Indonesia (1998 onwards), post- Ben Ali’s Tunisia (2011 onwards) and the United states in the time of Obama (2009-2017). The thesis is built on data from ethnographic fieldwork that was carried out for 13 months (July 2014-august 2015) in Indonesia, Tunisia and the United States.
