Talk:Todor Zhivkov
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Statndard of living
The following false statement removed.
- Unlike many other communist leaders, Zhivkov proved himself a sensible handler of the economy. Under his leadership, the standard of living for Bulgarians rose above that of many other Eastern bloc countries.
In fact, the only countries with lower living standard were Albania and Romania. Not to say that there were not so "many" Eastern bloc countries. mikka (t) 00:36, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
Like someone of you has lived in Bulgaria during his time...For some information, by the time Zhivkov controlled Bulgaria, literacy reached 100% and unemployment was down to 0% >:-( -StankoG

[edit] Wanted to make Bulgaria part of the Soviet Union?
Is it true that Zhivkov was so serviently moscovite, that he actually wanted Bulgaria to lose formal independence and become a member republic of the USSR? 195.70.48.242 11:39, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
