Why Bulgarian Jews skipped an official ceremony marking their rescue from the Nazis – Officials marked 80 years since Tsar Boris III stopped the deportation of the country’s 48,000 Jews; they didn’t mention the 11,000 whose murder by Nazis his government facilitated | Timesofisrael
JTA — Bulgaria’s president was on hand on March 10 for a ceremony marking the 80th anniversary of the country’s dramatic decision to save its 48,000 Jews from the Nazis.
So were representatives of the Bulgarian Orthodox church whose predecessors instigated the rescue, as well as a prominent Bulgarian-born Israeli historian and politician, Michael Bar Zohar, who published an early history of the episode, which was barely known until after the fall of communism.
