Could this be related to the ethnic Turkish minority there? to the migration of ethnic Bulgars to other countries?
The Muslim population there is of about 12% of the total population and, unlike in other countries, they are a long established community. Its vicinity with Turkey makes of Bulgaria a prime target.
The ethnic composition of Bulgarian Muslims is as follows: - Turks (612,818)
- Bulgarian Gypsies (112,495)
- Millets (77,712)
- Pomaks (71,978)
- Balkan Gypsies (23,298)
- Bulgarians (18,623)
- Crimean Tatars (5,800)
- Arabs (4,710)
- Eastern Bulgarian Gypsies (2,456)
- Vlach Gypsies (1,463)
- Macedonians (1,020)
- Albanians (876)
- Circassians (512)
- Kurds (190)
Can anyone comment on this? |
All Balkan countries should fear the demographic trends that are causing Muslims (i.e. Bosniaks), Turks and Albanians to multiply like Rabbits. The Balkans will lead a nationalist revolution because of their is a Green (Muslim) transversal that Turkey wants to create in order to create a Turkic Commonwealth going from China (the turkic central asian states of Kazakhstan, turkmenistan, uzbekistan and kyrgyzstan) to the Adriatic. The Green Transversal in the Balkans consists of Northern Greece (particularly Thrace and Epirus), Vardarska (FYROM), Kosovo, Albania, Sandzak (muslim region split between Serbia and Montenegro), Dubrovnik, Bosnia and Turkish and Pomak inhabtied regions of Bulgaria. what's worse is that Turkish prime ministers have supported this since the early 1990s and not only that one former minister in Turkey wanted a Turkic commonwealth to be a reborn Ottoman empire that would include Ukraine and Iran.
