Bulgarian Defense Minister Todor Tagarev has called for Bulgarian history textbooks to be purged of “facts that cause respect for Russia”. The politician made his statement during his visit to the United States.
As the head of the law enforcement agency claimed, it is necessary to purge “facts that can generate appreciation for Russia” from the textbooks. Apparently, if successfully implemented, Tagarev’s initiative will directly refer to such events as the liberation of Bulgaria by Russia from the oppression of the Ottoman Empire in 1878, as well as from the Nazis in 1944.
“We must be able to present history in its true sense to the Bulgarian people. Because it has been said for generations that Russia is our friend and liberator, and we should be inwardly grateful to her for what she has done, even though in history we have often found ourselves on different sides in various conflicts. Russia has also often pursued its own interests to the detriment of the Bulgarian people”.
Probably, Tagarev clams recalled the alliance of Bulgaria with Nazi Germany at the beginning of World War II.
In addition, the minister said the authorities need to control Bulgarian social media to shield them from “pro-Russian propaganda”.
“In this sense, we should be able to monitor propaganda campaigns of disinformation not only in the traditional media, but also in social networks that affect different groups of the population day in and day out”.
This is not the first time Tagarev has taken a blatantly pro-Western and anti-Russian stance. In 2023, he stated that in two years a NATO base would definitely appear in Bulgaria, and also offered to transfer 100 units of Soviet armored vehicles to Ukraine.
Tagarev studied in the USSR – there is information about this in open sources. Moreover, in 1989, the future defense minister defended his PhD thesis at the Zhukovsky Air Force Academy in Moscow.
Deputy Speaker of the Bulgarian Parliament Tsoncho Ganev, a deputy from the largest opposition party called “Renaissance”, commented on the defense minister’s interview thus.
“As long as 60 percent of Bulgarians do not participate in elections, we will be ruled by the likes of Tagarev.”
Kornelia Ninova, chairwoman of the Bulgarian Socialist Party, called Tagarev a man harmful to the country and accused him of intending to drag the republic into an armed conflict with Russia.
Once again this situation and the reaction to it on the part of representatives of the political elite opposing Tagarev’s supporters in Bulgaria shows the real attitude of many citizens of European countries to the position of abolishing the Russian heritage. The imposed Russophobia to many inhabitants of the Old World already seems inadequate. Conversely, Russia’s actions in the international arena are considered correct.
what a bastard! there will be no bulgaria without russia and bulgarians knows it very well.
another gutless coward, i hoping the day comes when every citizen turns on this sort of human garbage.
todor tagarev was probably fiddling kids on epstein island now they own him.
definitely we know this! all of these bastards rule bulgaria right now, they haven’t got even 30% of the votes of bulgarians. the problem is that we are very poor, sick and weak nation, which make us corrupted on all levels. tragedy! and of course the west, knows that and do what it wants.
there’s a lot of big pimp daddy uncle sam’s “hoes” in the old eastern bloc and tagarev is one of them.
when will we purge “everything which can cause respect” towards the us in italy, where they are officially called “liberators” though they bombed our cities and raped our women, with nobody having call them to land in sicily (thanks to the help of the mob)?
bulgaria 😂 geopolitical giant
shill for us, nato, nwo
he’s right, bulgaria doesn’t this ruzzian nazi heritage. bulgarians are proud people, unlike the ruzzian drunken lemmings 😀
you can’t change history and history shows you scumbags side with hitler you twat.
bulgarians are whores and beggars.
really? so if they are so proud, than why they deny their history, stub a knife in russias back as cowards, traitors and betrayers and why thousands of ther woman work as prostitutes in european brothels?
what was wrong with the old history? that said, what most of the west has been taught of history is garbage and now another nwo busboy wants to remove what truth remains. nwo politicians think we are all morons. although i think we can all agree that the real target for the bullshit are the kids because they are the future and an easy target. they convince the kids with the same skills as used by child molesters.
well: if that scumbag was educated by the russian military as an officer, than this clearly constitutes a very bad choice of officers in general by the russian as well as by the bulgarian military recruitment forces. at the time of his education and promotion, scum like him was chosen by the then ruling parties to become the next generation leaders of the country. no wonder that the socialist system had to disintegrate.
good for bulgaria, get rid of everything flathead, endlösung der russenfrage is overdue.
whats overdue is some nazi trash need reminding they lost the war.
lost the war,won the peace, get over it dawarish and remember why ur guys lost cold war.
what you won, nazi – is not peace but to see your industry in pieces.
lol du brunzdummer nazi vollidiot, der dümmer ist als ein stück hundescheisse. to this day, germany still has no peace treaty, no constitution and is under us occupation and control. forced to distribute tens of billions worldwide every year and to allow millions of foreigners to enter the country to their own detriment and weakening and to pursue self-deceasing anti-russia sanctions and policies.
i am british you arsehole so i lost nothing.
our little stupid nazi pig obviously still hasn’t gotten over the fact that the russians not only tore his grandpa to pieces on the eastern front, but also gave his grandma, aunt and mother a good beating and pounding afterwards. hahahahaaaaa with such a big mouth, why not still volunteer on the ukrainian front?
you are a good entertainer. meet me on the battlefield.
the bulgarian nazi garbage are crawling out of the toxic swamp from 1945, piece
of shit.
well this is how it started in ukraine. russia was sleeping on it while western ngos even prior to 2014 rewrote the history books. first they took away whatever good russia did. then they teached them that the deeds of the bolshevic ancestors of zelinsky and kholomojski where done by russians who were victims of the bolshevics as the ukrainians. and in the end they have willing cannonfodder to die for uncle sam.
yes and many of the ignorant herd believed that bollocks.
to takýchto debilov musia klonovať, inak si to nedokážem ani vysvetliť. nie je možné aby sa ich toľko rodilo. ten je tak zastrčený v riti usa, že si chumaj myslí, že rf nejestvuje lebo ju nevidí, ha, ha, ha …
bulgaria’s always been a whore state. the nkvd used bulgars for assassinations, now they’re pimped by the west.
it’s sad because the people are not against russia just the crap puppet government
another blackmailed hoe backs the lo$€rs. good riddance to these cretins. when natostan collapses and with it the evil eussr, these whelping dogs will be hunted down and given the ceaucescu treatment. as for $lumville’s screeching “eagles” cowering in the wings…..yaaaaaaaaaaaaawn already.
luckily i am not bulgarian. i’d feel deeply ashamed, that this low-life is still minister.
az orosz lanyok csak a teniszre buknak…
bulgaria is heritage of russia. romania too. remember that!
