Thanks. These are good documents, because of their revelations about the MPO in NA. Makedonska_Kafana often talks about how MPO used to be Bulgarian, but now is Macedonian. These documents confirm my understanding, that before Mihailov and his cohorts Bulgarised the group in the 40s, it actually represented the Macedonians and their desires for an independent state. Mihailov managed to manouver his way into the organisation, taking advantage of the fact that communists came to power in Macedonia and the fact that they promoted a pro-Yugoslav agenda.
This created divisions on several fronts: communist vs democrat; Serbian vs Bulgarian; and a mistrust between the two communities that grew over the years.
