BULGARIA’S CASE PLEADED
Mr George Kilishev (Bulgaria)—substituted at the last minute for the Bulgarian Prime Minister (Mr Kimon Georgiev)—in pleading his country’s ttuse before a plenary session of the Wris Conference, said that the new Wgaria did not wish to minimise the ,-jnes of those who threw the country mto war on the side of Germany. It
had severely punished those who had made the hateful alliance with Germany, declared war against Britain and America, transformed Bulgaria into a military base for Hitler, and acted so despicably that Russia had had to declare war against Bulgaria. Mr Kilishev claimed that Bulgaria had afterwards modestly contributed to the struggle against Hitler.
