"In 1943 Bulgarians saved their fellow Jews, but also saved themselves and their part of world civilization; they saved their dignity and were also defending the dignity of Europe."
This was what Bulgarian President Rumen Radev said in his address to the Sixth Global Forum for Combating Anti-Semitism that is taking place in Israel. Earlier today Radev honored the memory of the Jews who died during the sinking of the Salvador ship.
