BTV shot

If the Bulgarian public really knew what was happening between 1944 and 1948, when we remained under Soviet occupation, it would not have been so difficult to part with the monument to the Soviet Army. We are champions in Europe – the only ones who guard 185 monuments of the occupying Red Army. There is no other country like it in Europe.

“They constantly give false examples with the monuments in Vienna, Budapest, Berlin, but these are monuments built in places where there was a battle. There is no battle here – we are occupied without any reason. These are the metastases of a communist propaganda that poisons society not so many years.

Historian Evelina Kelbecheva said this on bTV.

“The most frightening is the reaction of people who are actually ignorant of real history, but who continue to serve a heavy propaganda. I am not surprised by this fact, but I am ashamed that according to research, the percentage of these people is so tall. We don’t have civil education in Bulgaria,” explained Kelbecheva.

According to her, Bulgarians have an extremely heavy mental heritage. “The propaganda that we are still witnessing today did not stop with the fall of the regime and the collapse of the Berlin Wall. We are the most impure of the fact that we are subject to 77 years of propaganda that began in the 18th century with Russophilia, with mythology about the liberators, folklore, literature and then the poet of history,” added the historian.

In connection with the dispute, which revolved around the personality of the mayor of Sofia, Eng. Ivan Ivanov, and whether his monument should be built in the capital, Evelina Kelbecheva said that for her, this is a completely pointless dispute.

“Ing. Ivan Ivanov is undoubtedly the mayor of Sofia, who continues the great modernization work of the builders of New Bulgaria. The fact that he was persecuted after September 9, but returned to help preserve the infrastructure of the great idea of ​​a modern Sofia, “It means that he was indispensable in a way. It is very elementary to accuse him of having a boulevard named after Hitler. Due to the fact that communism was not condemned by international law,” she explained.
