The honoring ceremony took place in the Bulgarian capital, Sofia.
Al-Ryalat affirmed, in a speech delivered on this occasion, that this honor comes as recognition of the exceptional role played by the artist Naydenov in carrying the message of Bulgarian art and culture to different parts of the world.

He said, addressing the artist: "Your artistic career is not merely a collection of songs, but a spiritual dialogue with the audience, and a living embodiment of human feelings that transcend the boundaries of language and culture.

You have created a unique artistic voice and a distinctive musical identity, and this honor is but a confirmation of what we all agree upon in appreciating your creativity."
He added that the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, with the cultural heritage and values of hospitality and tolerance it represents, sees in the artist Naydenov a true bridge of communication between the Jordanian and Bulgarian peoples, stressing that "the light of art" constitutes a path for deepening bilateral relations between the two countries, and expressing his hope that this meeting would be a starting point for a fruitful cultural dialogue that enriches the spiritual life of both the Arab and Bulgarian audiences.

For his part, the artist Vasil Naydenov expressed his deep emotion at this gesture, saying: "I never expected that Bulgarian music would reach this extent. Music unites peoples and cultures, and I am glad to be part of this vast world."

On this occasion, the artist Naydenov revealed a new, yet-unreleased song titled "Have I Told You How Beautiful You Are?", affirming that this work would serve as a special dedication to the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and His Majesty the King, and to women in general, calling on men to persist in expressing feelings of appreciation for those who stand by their side.

This meeting in the Bulgarian capital, Sofia, was organized under the patronage of businessman Anastas Terzopaliev, an expert in Middle East affairs, who affirmed the growing importance of culture and the arts as effective tools in diplomatic work, particularly in light of current international conditions, noting that the Republic of Bulgaria is qualified to play a pivotal role as a bridge of tolerance and coexistence between peoples.

Toward Global Horizons

The artist Naydenov expressed his pride in Bulgarian music transcending geographical boundaries, highlighting his new artistic collaboration with musician Boris Pavlov, and his reliance on artificial intelligence techniques in producing his latest song.

He said in this regard: "The world has become an open musical library, and there is no longer any justification for confining oneself to a local character; the trend toward global standards has become a necessity," adding with his characteristic candor: "I may not always enjoy media favor because I speak the truth, but what remains most important is the beauty of the song and the audience's engagement with it."
This honor embodies a recognition of the capacity of the arts to build bridges of human communication, a message of deep appreciation for Bulgarian culture, and evidence of the possibility of building solid Jordanian-Bulgarian relations through the gateways of music, education, and cultural dialogue — an affirmation that when art crosses borders, friendship between peoples crosses with it, without limits.
