President Parvanov was an agent

Last week it was revealed that current Bulgarian President, Georgi Parvanov, worked as a historian for the Bulgarian security service when he was young. Christo Christow comments. "'I admit that I worked for the state security. Please forgive me.' Not once in the past 17 years have we heard such a confession when it was about people having worked for the totalitarian regime's repressive apparatus. ... Here in Bulgaria, publicly exposed agents and informants always claim they acted out of love for their home country or for the sake of national interests, and thus have nothing to be ashamed of." He adds that over the past 17 years of the difficult process of transition, "Bulgarians have witnessed enough manipulation and seen enough files. And now we are once again witnessing how a fact that pertains to our head of state was long kept secret, and therefore turned into the manipulation of the entire Bulgarian society."
