Victory Day and the "Immortal Regiment" in Bulgaria

77
9 May 2016. The whole of Bulgaria celebrated Victory Day. This year, for the first time in the country, the Bulgarian Immortal Regiment passed. They are the descendants of the resistance movement in Bulgaria (1941 — 1944) and the descendants of the Bulgarian soldiers who fought against the Third Reich from 9 September 1944 through 9 in May 1945. They commanded the gene. Vladimir Stoychev under the operational guidance of Marshal Tolbukhin as part of the 3 of the Ukrainian Front. 24 June 1945 gene. Vladimir Stoychev was the only Bulgarian who marched at the Victory Parade in Moscow, he walked in the column of the 3 of the Ukrainian Front.


9 May 2016 Flowers and wreaths in front of the monument of the Soviet Army in Sofia


The holiday in the Bulgarian capital Sofia began exactly at 10 in the morning. The participants of the Immortal Regiment laid flowers and wreaths at the monument to the Unknown Soldier and went to the monument of the Soviet Army. The column included the former president and current chairman of the Bulgarian ABV party (“Alternative for the Bulgarian Revival”) Georgi Parvanov, deputy and chairman of the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP) Cornelia Ninova, deputy and chairman of the Attack party Volen Siderov, public figures and thousands Bulgarians

At the head of the column were participants in the St. Panteleimon Sofia Cossack village in uniform.

Russophobes and liberals in Europe are very hard going through the look of any Russian uniform, even when it is shown on TV. And here in the capital of the state, a member of the European Union and NATO, the Cossacks solemnly passed in uniform. On their standard - a two-headed eagle with three crowns, only on the shield instead of the Russian rider who kills the serpent, the golden Bulgarian lion roared.

The participants of the Great Patriotic War Yuri Mironov, Nikolai Melnikov, Anatoly Shkolin came from Russia to Sofia to meet with their comrades in arms. They were cordially welcomed by the chairman of the Bulgarian Veterans Council, Igor Zavyalov, and his Bulgarian colleagues in the fight against fascism. Brothers by arms visited the Russian Cultural Information Center (RKIC) in Sofia. There they got acquainted with the exhibition dedicated to the liberation of Bulgaria from the German invaders, talked warmly, recalled the war days, talked about stories and outlined plans for the coming holidays.

This year, even the police in Bulgaria attached St. George ribbons to their official service uniforms. They did so according to a deep personal conviction, and not according to a mandatory order from above. In order to fully appreciate the patriotism of Bulgarian policemen, one must know that this year’s St. George ribbons are banned not only in Ukraine, but even in Kazakhstan and Belarus. The Bobruisk city executive committee specifically “recommended” to the organizers of the rally on Victory Day “Thank you grandfather for the victory” not to use St. George ribbons and Russian symbols.

In 2016, only in two states around the world, police officers wore St. George ribbons on their uniforms. The first state is Russia, the second is Bulgaria. Seeing the police with St. George ribbons, all liberals and Russophobes in the country howled a desperate wolf howl. And it was from what howl! You do not need to be a rocket scientist in order to understand who these people will defend if the government orders them to go against the Slavic and Orthodox peoples.

After the participants of the Immortal Regiment laid flowers and wreaths at the monument to the Soviet Army, a concert and dancing in the open air began near the 11 hours. The weather was wonderful - sunny and warm, but not hot. After the end of the official part, not only the actors on the stage sang and danced, but also many of the citizens who came.

In 10, a live broadcast of the parade on Red Square in Moscow began in the RCFM cinema hall. The hall was full, the audience - almost exclusively from men. Record of the parade was shown on the big screen on the building several times, without interruption, and all day. And until the end of the day there were always a half or two dozen people in front of the screen.

In 13.30, a festive concert-performance began in the Great Hall of the RCFRC. The veterans, compatriots, schoolchildren and students of Sofia and grateful Bulgarian citizens celebrated the 71 anniversary of the end of the Great Patriotic War together. Actors of the Russian Chamber Theater, students and teachers of the Russian Lyceum and the School of Aesthetic Development truthfully and sincerely told about the Victory, about what price it was given, and helped all the audience in the hall to feel all the pain and heroism of the victorious people.

At the end of the day, from 17 to 20 hours, another procession was held in Sofia, dedicated to the 71 anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. The participants gathered in front of the Bulgarian National Assembly and expressed to the deputies everything they thought about the country's participation in NATO and participation in information aggression and military demarches against Russia. Then they passed through the city with Bulgarian and Russian banners, St. George ribbons and, of course, with red banners and a copy of the Banner of Victory. The procession ended again in front of the monument to the Soviet Army, where participants laid flowers and wreaths.

9 May 2016 The procession of the "Immortal Regiment" was held in the 26 cities of Bulgaria: Burgas, Botevgrad, Varna, Veliko Tarnovo, Vidin, Vratsa, Gabrovo, Dimitrovgrad, Dobrich, Karlove, Nesebar, Pavlikeni, Pernik, Pleven, Plovien, Plovin, Plovinis, Dubrovich, Karlovy, Nesebar, Pavnikeni, Pernik, Pleven. Ruse, Samokov, Silistra, Stara Zagora, Sliven, Targovishte, Shumen, Haskovo, Yambol. St. George ribbons, Russian and red banners fluttered throughout the country. The Bulgarian people made it clear to their rulers that they remember the feat of Soviet soldiers and did not want to participate in the demarches of NATO and the European Union against Russia.


"Immortal regiment". We remember and are proud!

      Brothers - Slavs are unlucky in power for all ages, some Western licking at the helm are becoming, but ordinary people, although I do not really justify it, know who their real allies and friends are ...!

        The fact of the matter is that in power

        And ordinary people treat Russia very well. This is also indicated by personal contacts.
        I have a friend in Bulgaria, educated since the times of the USSR. He is both a businessman and a specialist in manual therapy. Most of the literature in the specialty is in Russian. Periodically, our specialists in this specialty (Vasilyeva, Chernysheva) hold seminars and master classes in Bulgaria.
        Favorite writer is our Russian science fiction writer Roman V. Zlotnikov.
        this man, a former athlete, winner of Bulgaria in sambo. Coached by his Soviet coach. To ordinary ordinary Bulgarians, I would not attribute it. He has too serious ties in Bulgaria. Those. the vast majority of the Bulgarian population is pro-Russian.
        It's just that the Anglo-Saxons never miss Bulgaria from their sphere of influence and buy up the power of those in the cradle.

        According to my comrade, the current young generation of Bulgaria knows English better than Russian, despite the affinity of the Bulgarian and Russian languages.
        But this is a Russian flaw, to say the least. Indeed, knowledge of the Russian language determines the possibility of not only close communication, but also the transfer of our principles, our views.

      "... I just don’t understand where the vandals come from, desecrating monuments to the Soviet liberation wars, because our peoples are closely linked by bonds of friendship for many centuries."

      Here's the answer: A bunch of paid marginals. For a small amount of money, a showy provocative event is organized. Relevant journalist girls create a dense negative background and replicate "novelty". The goal is to create a negative attitude among Russians towards the entire Bulgarian people, and in response, the Bulgarians towards Russians. An intense disinformation-psychological war is being waged to clash the fraternal peoples.

        I would be glad to believe that a bunch of paid outcasts creates all the negativity - that’s how it started in Ukraine 25 years ago ... And what is there now? And with what is being done at the official level in Bulgaria - you will catch up with Russophobia much faster in Ukraine than in 25 years. If you haven’t already caught up ... Demolish Alyosha, periodically decorate the monument in Sofia - you are on the right road, bro ... The State Department will praise ...

          Quite the opposite, we jumped back in 97 according to the same scenario. Then there was the government of the Bulgarian Socialist Party headed by Zhan Videnov, by the way, the only politician in recent years who both entered politics and left without stealing anything. These jumps were necessary in order to rob the people's property, and at the same time the North Americans needed support for the bombing of Yugoslavia. All this took place not without the participation of certain circles in the BSP, including the aforementioned President G. Parvanov, and they are now oligahs. Since then Bulgaria has been run by the Governor of the North American Embassy. But very soon, when the fog of that "color revolution" began to dissipate, many of the jumpers asked themselves the question: "And in fact, what were we jumping for?" The fact that the people came out on May 9th is good, but not enough, the potential is many times greater. However, the situation is aggravated by the fact that 2 million Bulgarians have left the country, because if they are taken into account, then unemployment will be about 50N, and for most of those who work, the salary barely covers the subsistence level. But the Ukrainians are catching up with us at an accelerated pace. It is a pity that everything that he wrote was in plain sight for a long time, but they did not look closely, and who looked closely, either fell silent, or was crushed. Of course, the political technologists also worked pretty well.

      "Bulgaria fought against us twice. But, apparently, the people, in spite of the past years, have retained the memory of who liberated them from the Turks. Maybe not everything is lost for them, unlike other Poles?"

      Bulgaria did not fight against you. In the First World War, not Bulgaria fought against Russia, but Russia fought against Bulgaria in the Bulgarian territory. For Bulgaria, WWI is a just, liberating and common war! In this war, to our great regret and disappointment, Russia entered into an alliance with our sworn enemies. So, Bulgarians assess Russia's role in WWI extremely negatively. During World War II, Bulgaria and the USSR maintained normal diplomatic relations. Bulgaria fought against the Anglo-Saxons / they are the eternal enemies of the Slavs / but not against the USSR either! At the end of 44, Bulgaria entered the war against Germany and the Bulgarian army gave a significant contribution to the defeat of the Nazis. At the present time, the entire Russophobic policy of the "Bulgarian" authorities is in diametrical contradiction with the mood of the Bulgarian people. I cannot compare with the Poles. Bulgarian in its majority is Russophile. This greatly worries Washington and it is quite possible that the United States is organizing some new provocations to insist on the Russians against the Bulgarians.

        "Russia fought against Bulgaria on the Bulgarian territory. For Bulgaria, PMA is a just, liberating and unified war!"
        This phrase is very popular among Poles, Ukrainians (Shchiras), among some Belarusians, among all possible Balts - one to one, only the name of the country changes. Probably, there is only one methodical manual, slightly adjusted for the country-"sradalitsa". And how amazingly these two have united against the background of this point from the manual. One thing is good - not everyone studied it.
        All the same, without anger towards you, despite your liberation war and hatred of the 90s at your resorts. Unfortunately, our children now have nothing to tell and show about Bulgaria - on goods, neither books, nor films. For them, now everything is the same — the Baltic states (what kind of country is Estonia, what about that?), Romanians, Bulgarians, Hungarians. It's a pity.

          Do you think that in Bulgaria there is a lot to show about Russia ??? What goods does Russia export so that someone can pride to say "Here is my Russian ..."? There are almost no books, except for classics. We (I live in Shumen, which is close to Varna) once had a bookstore where they sold only Russian books. Now they sell footwear there, but what films would you suggest that you would not copy, directly or indirectly, from Hollywood?
          I’m talking about the fact that if Russia wants to influence world politics, it’s to pass through the minds and hearts of ordinary people. And for this you need to work and work ... What prevents some Russian investor from opening AGAIN a bookstore for RUSSIAN books. Or sponsor the distribution of Russian films. Publish a magazine or newspaper. Invite schoolchildren or students on a trip to Russian sights. All this has happened in the old days and the attitude of ordinary people was, at least, supportive.
          Of course, military parades - it inspires pride and improves the well-being of Russians, but we have our pro-American (nothing personal wink ) The media are presented as evidence of your aggressiveness. It is necessary to resist the American "soft power". And this is money and labor and desire and creativity ... The ball is on the field of Russia and its corresponding structures. So far we have (and not only) something then there is no visible action in this direction. belay

      Bulgaria did NOT invite Putin to celebrate Liberation Day from the Ottoman yoke -

      I apologize, members of the forum, I will quote my recent comment on this subject, by the way which many minuses:

      We've gotten the teeth on edge already, all these, recently, frequent articles about how the Bulgarians betrayed us, and that "do not do good to another, and you will not get evil", supposedly in vain we saved the Bulgarians from the Turks, forgetting that in Russia in the war with the Turks had its own geopolitical interests. Stop being offended as a child, the fact that the Bulgarians betrayed us is not ours, this is their problem, in the end! And the problem is serious! The Bulgarian people, no matter what they say, remember who freed them from the Turkish yoke, and for the most part they treat Russians well. I am sure that many Bulgarians perfectly understand their betrayal and do not approve of it


      The salvation of the Bulgarians by the Russians did not remain without a trace, Hitler, as he did not demand from Tsar Boris to send the Bulgarian troops to the eastern front, could not achieve this! Moreover, in 1944, Bulgaria began to fight against the Germans themselves.


      Not to be offended seriously. If Stalin were offended by the Bulgarians because they were allies of the Germans, then the 1st Bulgarian army would not have appeared as part of the 3rd Ukrainian Front! Stalin was wiser in this regard and more pragmatic!

      It is necessary not to reject this country, but to work with the healthiest strata of Bulgarian society. In the end, you need to use the moment that we have our own people in NATO. Yes, and such pro-Russian sentiments bring a split into Western unity.

Do you think that the people of Bulgaria asked someone if we wanted to be a NATO member or an EU member ??? Nothing like this!!!!
      A group of corrupt comprador officials behind the backs of the people involved us in NATO, under direct pressure from the United States. I myself am a witness, as in 2000, one of the wings of the Department of Defense building was given for the American mission. There, the guards were not held by our soldiers, but by the US marines. And no one could enter there without the permission of the Americans. This is right above the premises of our General Staff. What did the Americans do there ??? Eto four years before the entry of Bulgaria into NATO.

        Well, about some of our managers, it is also unclear what interests of which country are dearer to them.

        And I also have a question, who can answer: in the book of Ivan Vazov, which was inherited to me, there was a leaf, and there were poems about the first pioneer of Bulgaria, Den Lagadinov. No matter how much I searched on the Web, I didn’t find anything --- neither about the pioneer, nor verses. Excerpt:

        The horse was taken away by the soldiers.
        Day looked sadly after
        Seeing off like a brother:
        --- Do not forget me, my White!

        Dena lit the lamp,
        Entered the house, open to troubles.
        Police officers angry pack
        Burst after her.

        House abundance of kerosene.
        The walls, the doors were burning
        Window sills, rafters ...
        The woes of Dena cannot be measured.

        Wind shutter beats on a grand scale.
        Glasses burst with a ringing.
        Dan cries like a bird
        Above the nest devastated.

          Oh mountains proud of the Balkans
          behind the ridge,
          row by row!
          Oh fabulous giants

            But these verses, like so much more, probably
            Destroyed on purpose (as I think). A pity! From somewhere, my grandmother rewrote them. When she worked as a teacher and educator, she prepared concerts with her children, for this she collected such verses.

            Oh mountains, proud Balkans,

            Oh fabulous giants
            Oh, good fellows squad!
            What are you mountains thinking about?
            But mountains of words do not say
            Where did you look?
            I see - they look into the distance.
            Where the sun rises early
            There, where among the colorful roofs,
            Between sad and crimson roses
            You, daughter of Bulgaria, are standing.
            Ivanka, sweet Ivanka,
            That terrible year, a harsh day,
            Leaving home early in the morning,
            You married your wattle fence.
            Hurry you, fearless sulfur
            Climbing the steep mountains
            Along the secret paths, faithful stitches,
            Your path was dangerous, but straight.
            You hid carbon monoxide in the baths,
            Lurking in the marshes of reeds
            And for good reason the enemies are treacherously
            Lurking every step.
            You walked and walked and the darkness thickened
            Over the meadow, over the country
            And the cold night came down
            Over the forest black shroud.
            And knowing every step
            Where is the hill, where is the old sail
            You walked, the land itself is dear
            From the road did not let go.
            But the war is not a little trouble
            War is insidious, evil.
            Fascist departure met
            You are on the outskirts of the village.
            So what is your fate -
            Lead Ivanka for interrogation,
            But only hatred sparkles in my eyes
            And there is no trace of tears.
            And you look at the faces of the enemy,
            And you see the stars of the Kremlin light,
            A short century has not lived in vain,
            And in the heart of fear there is none the less.
            Silent, Ivanka, not a word
            You don't tell executioners
            You are ready to meet your death
            And proudly, as you stand in the ranks.
            Let the enemy bullet whistle
            And let the head go down
            Who said there - she was gone?
            Ivanka, you are alive, alive!
            You are with us, with us, forever with us
            Live you step to us
            and the sun sprinkles, sprinkles flame
            to your feet, to your feet ...

        They were hired by the representatives of the Ruling class - the bourgeoisie. The government works for the employer. Capital is international. Therefore, attempts to find patriots there are strange. To talk about the interests of the people is professional among all bourgeois governments. And to raise GDP by reducing incomes of the population - it is a question of Wages and PENSIONS - this is foolishly blamed. Western unprofessionalism, chatting without thinking. No one speaks of a reduction in% profit on capital, luxury tax, differentiated tax rates. This is - to climb into your pocket! And to rob the proletariat is sacred! And they came up with an excuse - GDP will increase! Just like that - water will flow upwards in the absence of solvent demand. Something thought has arisen, they want to quietly restore democracy in the country. And then the President is reorganized to the dictatorship of the proletariat.

      At the beginning of 2013 the people, driven to despair, RISE !!! Several people committed self-immolation, because there was no money to pay for elementary things - energy, medicine, food ... can you imagine in the 21st century ??? As a result of the riots, Borisov's Cabinet resigned. After early elections, a broad coalition government came to power, which tried to work in the interest of its citizens. They resumed the construction project of the NPP "Belene", they began work on the "South Stream" ...
      And it began. !!! Under a far-fetched pretext, "spontaneous civil protests" began, where "the best representatives of the nation", "the most intelligent and beautiful", "the most creative", etc. and so on, they filled the square in front of the Parliament with screams and rubbish all day long. It came to attempts to break into the building of the "People's Assembly" and physical reprisals from unwanted deputies. Clashes with the police became commonplace. It lasted for a YEAR and a half !!! CONTINUOUSLY !!!
      With the active assistance of the "president" R. Plevneliev and high-ranking officials from his administration.
      It became known that most of the initiators and instigators worked in the structures of the Soros Foundation and related organizations like USAID and the like, but this was disavowed and rejuvenated.
      Until one of the parties in the coalition gave up the slack (PROTURETSKAYA DPS) and the Government fell, so that the State Department's favorite, "Mr." Yes, "B.Borisov, would again be on top. It was in the summer of 2014.
      Does this technology remind you of something ??? Personally, my IMHO - it was a dress rehearsal of the Ukrainian Script.
      And no one already thinks that something can be changed. The only option left is emigration and work for a penny abroad. Such are the things.

Well, let's say they have invited Erdogan, but this holiday is a mockery to him, because for an Erdogashi it is a mockery, because for a Bulgarian it is a yoke, for a Turk it is a joy.

      You know, but we have a special attitude towards the Bulgarians. That war was not just a war between the empire and the sultanate, it was like a domestic one, that is, just. Not only did a certain number of participants from the Russian side were volunteers, but the result of that war was the formation of new states. And that’s it. So before the war were not fought. Or, the state gained something (territories, gold) or lost. Russia, in fact, brought freedom to other nations for the first time in History, gaining nothing material in return.
      As a result of the war between Russia and Turkey, Bulgaria was born as a free country.

        "It turns out that we are much more related than other Slavs."

        This connection is karmic. She was born back in the early Middle Ages. Many believe that Russian civilization is the continuation and development of the Slavic-Bulgarian medieval civilization. It was with her that the mental code of the East Slavic peoples was embedded in her time. When Bulgaria drowned in the darkness of 5 of centuries-old Ottoman slavery, to the East in Russia this culture continued to live and develop. In 1877, Russia fulfilled its Sacred duty and brought Bulgaria back to life. Russia and Bulgaria are two parts of one whole. Therefore, our common enemies are so passionately trying to remove us from one another. They do not have time. It will not work for them.

      Was 10 years ago in Bulgaria, near Burgas. In the morning with the child went to a cafe for breakfast. And I only know Bulgarian "Iskam golyama bir" - I want a big beer - and a few more vital expressions of the same theme. The Bulgarian word for "orange" is to order juice for a child - I did not know at that time. So I started ordering orange juice in Russian from a young Bulgarian waitress. The contact of civilizations lasted for several minutes, but was not crowned with success - the child got apple juice. What is still logical - "orange" is consonant with the English "apple".
      This is the attitude of the Bulgarian young generation towards the Russian language. I think the situation is approximately the same with the memory of the exploits of the Red Army.

Do you want to live under the management of Zhirinovsky just to please us? The communists who beat, now the BSP have twice bankrupted the country. I love Russia, but I do not agree to live under pseudo-communist rule just because Russians like it so much. Choose a normal partner in Bulgaria, behave friendly and you will succeed. And for God's sake, do not behave in such a way that every Bulgarian owes you personally for the feat of your grandfathers. 1990 you left us, not you. We are small, we cannot defend ourselves on our own without allies, import substitution is impossible with us in principle - there are no resources, we cannot live without trade. When they quit, what should we do? Dying of hunger, waiting for the Russians to be aware of? Serbia are 70 kilometers away from us.
