	News report: Jews fondly remember Bulgaria's wartime protection
		Authentic documents confirmed explicitly that the late King Boris III was the ultimate force in preventing the deportation (and, thus, the extermination) of the Bulgarian Jews.
		The king who successfully resisted the pressure of Hitler to deport the Jewish population of Bulgaria to the death camps and to send Bulgarian soldiers to the Eastern front, died in Sofia on August 28, 1943, under suspicious circumstances, few days after a meeting with Hitler at the Wolfsschanze (Fuehrer's headquarters).
		Thus, King Boris III delayed the inevitable as long as it was possible and managed to negotiate optimal conditions: the Germans just to cross Bulgarian territory (fast, not as an occupying force, and along strictly designated routes) and the country to preserve its sovereignty.
