Russia Calls on Bulgaria to Prevent March in Honour of WWII Pro-Nazi General

Russia has called on Bulgarian authorities to prevent a planned torchlight rally organised by a Bulgarian radical nationalist party in honour of a controversial WWII army general known for his pro-Nazi and anti-Semitic activities.

The Russian Embassy in Bulgaria has sent a protest note to the Bulgarian Foreign Ministry citing the UN resolution on combating glorification of Nazism.
