Аннотация
The research objectives of this article are to analyse Bulgaria’s place in the policies of the USSR, the USA and Great Britain in the early post-war years, 1944–1948, and to answer the main research question about the role of an external factor in the Bulgarian Communist Party’s rise to power and its assertion as a leading political force. The method of analysing archival documents and causal connections between the Soviet and American policy, on the one hand, and the actions of the Communist party on the other, makes it possible to trace the geopolitical interests of the USSR and the USA and Bulgaria’s place in them. The article discusses Soviet support for the Bulgarian Communist Party in the context of Moscow’s strategy towards the United States and the way it changed in 1946–1948 as a result of the Cold War. It reveals the role of US diplomacy in the emergence of the anti-communist opposition in Bulgaria and its dependence upon the American support it received, and on Washington’s policy towards the USSR. The research results highlight how the Soviet-American confrontation was projected on domestic political processes in Bulgaria and the way it predetermined the Communist Party’s victory over its opponents.
