Bulgarian dignitaries gathered on March 10, 2010 to mark the 67th anniversary of campaigns among Bulgarians to resist the Holocaust. Bulgarian National Assembly President Tsetska Tsacheva said, "Of course, on this day we can't forget those 11,343 victims, who were sent to the death camps. Those were Jews from so-called Integrated Bulgarian territories, which theoretically were under the administrative management of Bulgaria, but were indeed controlled by the Third Reich.” Macedonia's Jews would like Bulgaria to apologize for allowing their community to be nearly exterminated during World War II.
