[Obektivno] Defense Minister Todor Tagarev, who is on a five-day visit to the United States, has demanded that the history curriculum be purged of "facts that can create an appreciation of Russia's role in our past." Tagarev made his speech to the Atlantic Council, an American think tank funded by NATO, Soros' Open Society, the British Foreign Office, the Rockefeller Foundation, and others. Not only the traditional Bulgarian media, but also the social networks "must be monitored" in order to counteract the Russian propaganda creeping into them. And the teaching of history in Bulgarian schools should be cleared of facts capable of generating appreciation for Russia's role in our past, said Tagarev. The Minister of Defense presented to the Atlantic Council the measures that should be taken in Bulgaria to "counteract Russian propaganda": "First, we must be able to present history in its real sense to the Bulgarian people. Because generation after generation it is said that Russia is our friend and liberator and we should be internally grateful to it for what it has done, although in history we have often been on the opposite sides in various conflicts. Russia has also often pursued its own interests to the detriment of the interests of the Bulgarian people. So one thing is history and education”. The second measure, according to Tagarev, is: "to be able to identify disinformation and propaganda campaigns and to find the best possible ways to counter these campaigns." In this sense, we must be able to track the propaganda campaigns of disinformation not only in the traditional media, but also in the social networks, which impact day after day on different groups of the population. And to find the most suitable interpretations to counteract this misinformation".
